What You Call A Man Poem by Chukwuma Adione

What You Call A Man



Don't call a cat a lion
lest a millipede baptizes itself
into a serpent with fake venom
don't call a hen a bird
lest a lizard becomes an alligator
don't call a dog a beast
lest the soldier ant shoots a rifle
rather call a man divinity and devil.
