Many times a big butt bullied him,
He stretched & devised ways
Ways to get far into the source
& epitome of succulent flesh.
Whenever we told him to put on
Or take safety precautions,
He just laughed at his cowards
Saying, you only live once.
He’s now four moons on his bed
& on a strict diet without a big butt,
HIV is etched into his hive
& regret writes itself on his face.
Today, every big butt that darts by
Makes him look the other way.
He still sees hope in the depth of scars
& teaches others the weight of pain.

When one keeps a deaf ear to positive guidance, the best way to refine such a mind is to go through situations that eventually bend them low. Such people come out straight and usually detest what they went through before every platform. Educative piece, Omadang..
