Because i anwser to our children when you're nowhere to be found, <br />because i provide food with the scraps i was given; <br />I AM A WOMAN. <br /> <br />Because i am robbed of my privacy because i wont willinglt satisfy you, <br />because i have to accept htat i am no-longer a priority for i now have a fat belly; <br />I AM A SOUTH AFRICAN. <br /> <br />Because for my children i am forced to be your slave; restricted to household duties, <br />Because I am forced to tolerate your inappropriate behaviour a you get home late from the pub <br />I AM BLACK <br /> <br />Because I do what I have to, but not what I want to; <br />I AM A BLACK SOUTH AFRICAN WOMAN<br /><br />Yolanda Mbatha<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem..../black-south-african
