The Girl Child in the Slums

living
on the mound of a dump
the girl child in the slums
a season of pain
no winter or autumn
to her fate
she will succumb
married early
no problem
a couple of kids
she will be an
old woman
with a hump
this picture
will be part
of my photo
album
i pray for her
being a father
of a girl child too
that she lives
happily
when her
time comes
hope and love
the outcome
