REDUNDANT Poem by Julius Chingono

REDUNDANT



Mother is now a woman
who is tired of bearing
who has retired
or was made redundant
by divorce.
She rarely beats the naughty
she just glares
as if she had no hands to slap
as if she had no mouth
to reprimand the mischievous.
She is like a soldier
retired for medical reasons.
