FASHION OF WEAPONRY!

FASHION OF WEAPONRY                     
Skimpily attired!
Of looks that invite...

 'Notice me' make up to go about 
Wanderers like marabouts
Offensive sense of dressing now, glamourised
Fashion of dangerous weaponry as nudified Shameless display of bodily wares
Of brief clothing- body hugs, body chokes all in tattered wears 
Proclaiming for sale, at sensual top and bottom 
Some 'petticoats' of  many colours
Seeking 'fun-seekers' and other sickening callers 

Haters of modesty 
Marauders of decency
Twerk-ing as they walk, their job enhancer
Dancing while they move, as
 their act enticer
Expectant of complimentary cheers, perhaps of their co-recents
Come repugnant jeers of the old and decents Fashion is it? 
Or madness be it?

Of uncouth traits
Of uncultured and 'untrained'
Yet, some were trained only uncompromising of 'home training'
Unrepentantly garbed in fashion of weaponry unending'

And suddenly came a sound
Its effects that somewhat, had no bound
'Faaa...'the fart came, of one amongst them! 
From that part of her lower arsenal 
In her 'filthy' rags revealing her annals! 
Uwakó run won. 
Eyìn òko run won (ljebu dialect)
