Shaalabbin Poem by Edward Kofi Louis

Their vines are like the vines of Sodom and,
Their fields are like the fields of Gomorrah!
But try to learn from this muse if,
You are a woman who has not slept with a man before.

Their wine is like the dragon's poison and,
Their drink is like the venom of asps!
But do learn from this muse if only if,
You are girl who has not slept with a man before.

The water of purificationis not far from us,
And like the chariots and the horsemen around;
But life is always like the form of a female sheep.

You came and made love to me and never came back again,
But try to listen to the echoes of my voice oh world;
Because i am from the entrance of Alaska and,
My name is Shaalabbin.

She must be relieving herslf in the inner room,
For she is an exceptionally fat woman;
And i am sitting in my private chamber of love waiting.

I am waiting for my lover and my name is Shaalabbin,
But you are the left-handed man with the double-edged sword;
So come and show me the entrance of the city of love if only,
You care for me like the joyful nudes of beautiful women
