They stand there with shorts, so short, excessively short,
shorts that so deceptively capture from them all they know
of modesty...
...and I proudly pull my scarf over my hair
They stand there, face lost in a sea of make-up,
make-up that so ruthlessly captures from them all they know
of freedom...
...and I proudly pull my scarf over my hair
They stand there, hair raining with gels, colors -
chemicals that so menacingly capture from them all they know
of purity...
...and I proudly pull my scarf over my hair
They stand there, so close, so very close to their "lover",
devoted to them, the devotion that so mercilessly captures
from them all they know of individuality...
...and I proudly pull my scarf over my hair
And they stand there, talking of getting new shorts, new gels
and colors, new boyfriends, materialistic things
that so wrongfully capture from them all they know
of God and love...
...and I proudly pull my scarf over my hair
For my scarf is my protector, my lover, my devotion,
my pureness, my beauty, my rememberance of God,
And I proudly pull it over my hair knowing that when I wear it,
I so rightfully thrust away all the things that the devil
brought about,
And when I put it on, I am
Free...

I used to think you where the best Ihsan, but the copy and pastemanship is....nevermind my fill ups. The aim of all this is to inspire you towards creation. You read good poetry, mobilise your mind, the Idea is just speak your heart out in a lil voice that will go through forever. I still wait for your "genuine" poetry.
If u want start to dey write rubbish my sister go fall for one rugged boy from ajegun drive and ull see the results start rollin out quick-quick.

Ihsan, it's good you admit copying sometimes, just try and acknowledge the writer at the bottom of your posts when you do that. This is a poem with a conviction. Can someone please clean it up. All those ' ' get in the way!
And Ihsan, your poems are yours, it is neither better than nor worse than any other's. Do not be afraid to share them!
