The Rape Of The Blessed Virgin

he invaded her conscience,
and violated  her sleep of scruple,
forcing her to wake up to the reality
of her vulnerability.
if a saint's not so good
what about the vile?

her innocense had just been raped.
in a moment of corruption,
he murdered the blessed virgin,
the virgin of the atlantic!
if the pale missionary could be traitorous
what about the villain?

the pale suitor had sworn
an oath of chastity to snare her.
the sages did not forwarn her.
the gods foretold her impregnability.
if the youth is not that beautiful
what about the aged?

he leaves her dry and dying with wants
the lusts of corrupt leaders!
Africa, the virgin of rich forests!
the last maid of Prince Akzum!
Haile Selassie's breastplates of purity!
where's your treasured flower, oh ancient of moons!
