You came
of own volition
to this our abattoir
a slaughter house of sorts
or a theatre of dreams
where hearts bleed
and souls drip
94 minutes is all it takes
its all it took
your spots to erase
your claws to recoil
now,
with the roosters silenced
the Ingwe-lets totally Divasified
you bow in a mockery of victory
subdued
you stand in the green regalia
the powerful hue of legendary Mahia
who are you to imagine victory
in a place so secure?
