Knight in Dented Armour

Original poetry

Knight in Dented Armour

From Greatness Too Is Meant for You, an unpublished 2014 manuscript by Adetimilehin Inioluwa Victor (Vic’Adex). Lightly edited for grammar while preserving the original voice.

If a penis is all a man is,
He’s just a reproductive piece,
That makes beasts equally men,
A title they rightfully earn

If it is strength and use of tool
Gorillas, bulls are way more cool
Not to talk of computers too
They’ll usurp man out of the blue

Rather, reason and emotion:
Know right from wrong and set things in motion.
If your might has made you a bull
You’re a dirty, useless, senseless fool.

Nail your spouse’s worries with your punch
Take on her fears as you take lunch
Show her love, show her very much
And appreciation thank you a bunch

Pride is weakness, Ego is frail
While she washes, help fill the pail
Don’t treat her like a runaway slave,
Knight in dented armour that saves

Editor’s note: First drafted in the early Vic’Adex voice and preserved here as part of the Words on Rampage archive.
