In my World

In my world, women are not just the objects of desire. Women are not just the sex underneath the male one. In my world, women are not to be raped because people think they deserve it, because they are worthless. The girl child will be educated because they deserve to. They will not be ignored and the male child will not be given consideration before her. Women will not be subjected to certain jobs because the sex above them can do the other better. Well, in my world, what a man can do a woman can do…even better!!! In my world, women will not die while giving birth, because the government fails to include their sexual reproduction and health rights into their policies. Women will not be shamed because they have their menses or because their breasts have started sprouting. In my world, they will not have a doubt that their needs will always be looked into. Because of the greatness they have within them. We are a legend.


In my world, children are the jewels of the earth. The beauty of the world. Children are the cause of joy and happiness. And they deserve to be given the best. In my world, they will not die of hunger because the government is unwilling to fill their little tummies. They will not have to sleep hungry because I plan to be their mama. And God will send the manna from heaven. In my world, they will not have to be laden with work when they can play and have a normal childhood. They will not be forced to be laborers when they can go to school. They can play in the park until it’s almost dark. They can have their hopes augmented; they will not be prevented from having a normal childhood. I will help them put all their hopes in a locket, which they can store in their pockets. I believe in their cute little hearts that just want to have a smart start so that they can reach their stars. There will be no child abuse, because in my world people have brains to know that these are our stars. They just need a guiding hand, not a slapping hand. They do not want to be raped, so I will adorn them with a super cape. The world will protect them. In my world, I will have a banquet for them, and watch them as they rocket to greatness. For I see the greatness in the little generation.
