ABIKU(A CHANGELING)

Abiku chaste as the mermaid

unstable as time

cruel as claws of death

unconquered as the sun

courageous like a lion

unreasonable as a mad man.

I am she who every mother abhors,

i fluctuate between realms

no mortal can hinder.

I cannot be spellbound,

By enchantment or devices,

Or appeased by rituals or traditions.

I am powers and invicible,

Ancient as earthly creations,

I disengage from covenants at will,

Stirs sorrow in the heart of mothers.

I am she the daugther of the oceans.

Whom i stick to is appealing to me,

They that i reject have never hurt me.

I behave by my own edict

A principle to guide my transitions

I am Abiku the chaste mermaid.
