Analysis of The Prayers of a prostitute



The prayers of a Prostitute by Abayomi Habib

A Poem BY Habib Abayomi

She's the darling of the brothel house as a street prostitute,

But she loves the brothel house with a passion,

How many years will she lose her womb and become barren,

When her days was making her bereave with the deadly disease

Then I will sing about the passion of suffering an aborted womb,

Her womb was dead, and we can't wait to abandon on the brothel house.

When will she dance again and also bereave the night as a prostitute?

But times have fallen apart as she dances with the power of love,

And the oracle laughs at her womb again,

How many years will she suffer miscarriage again with her aborted womb,

when all sorrows of the family house was gone

And we can't dance with her womb again,

all hope was gone with the brothel house as a prostitute

,And she walk away as a ghost of the night when dancing.
