Dauda Tholley Woman Poems
- 1. African Woman
Womanhood is a pride
Tied around her waist
To package her mountain
In her little boubou;
... - 2. The New Wall And The New Colossus.
LAZARUS! In silence you lie
Beneath the dust of ancient scrolls,
Whilst your art ; The mother of exiles
Dines in the womb of time demarcated.
... - 3. I Died To Live Again
Evening smile must be worn,
Tonight's dinner is served
With the drumming of their guns.
Battalion of thirsty soldiers are on the verge
...
