At ease?

The other day, I read about an old lady who decided to leave
her husband after 21years of being married to him. Everyone thought she was out
of her mind for doing that; after all, she should have gotten used to all his shenanigans.
She left and heaven didn’t fall. He just got a new habit of always targeting her
eyeballs whenever he beat her. It is new, he normally would just rush at her
and beat her all over.
Alas! she chose her eyeballs after all these years, it was
the last straw.
Not too long ago, the tabloids had an unusual story of a man
who had to run to his neighbor’s apartment for safety from an abusive wife. His
friends had always noticed marks on his hands and face every now and then; but he
always had a preplanned cover story. This time, he finally felt the need to
escape from her rage because she came for his privates.
Eventually, his privates made him go public.
Alas! Lockdown wasn’t bliss for some humans, they had monster
partners who made it hellish to be alive.
There is
the frightened little girl with the twisted uncle. It is bad enough that he
strings a lot of ladies along to satisfy his hellish weakness; he stole her
innocence and destroyed her virginity but she was too afraid to speak. He had threatened
to kill her.
Alas! The moment
she was able to escape into the compound through the store window, she knew
never to go back because she couldn’t take it anymore. He would not let her out
of the house throughout the day. He raped her so many times every day. She was
his only prey.
The other timid
boy had been an object in his aunt’s bed every afternoon for the past few
months and he couldn’t summon the courage to tell his strict mum because he had
been told by his aunt that she won’t believe him.
Alas! His mum was
napping on the couch that discovery Wednesday during the lockdown; when she heard sounds
that gave their secret away. Well, at least the boy has been delivered from the
weirdo and her nuances. He is still in therapy.
What shall I say?
Right now, we all stand at ease. Lockdown at ease
A beautiful composition. Well done sis.
