Nights like this with blood dripping out of me.
Feets locking the bowl of EBA I just stirred
Father angry that it was a bit too hard
Mother failing to convince him why the garri was difficult to make
Brother angry that I couldn't complete little brothers assignment when I came from work.
Nights like this with these little things happening are why i sometimes wish I was not born with a Vagina between my legs.
