16+ Days of Violence I hear that you’ve declared 16 Days of Activism 25th November to 10th December- sweet 16 Days Why these dates I don’t know Perhaps then the year is slow As more important things already happened Then again, why 16 Days? Why not 1 or 2 Days? I guess 16 Days sweetens the deal – Christmas come early When it comes to free money à la donor money. I hear that you are painting the city orange #ORANGEURHOOD- your copyrighters and designers They must have charged an arm and a leg for the slogan Money paid up front, in dollars and euros Maybe in pounds- but never in shillings or roubles I hear the country director lives in Runda, or is it Muthaiga? I wonder what he does- rarely is he a she The other 349 Days of Inactivism! My mind imagines things, classic of village idiocy I can see the country director and his team gloating As they sip champagne and feast on lamb chops They had ran out of ideas for this year’s theme Then a miracle happened- #MyDressMyChoice So, there is no need to recycle last year’s theme Everyone sighs in relief and refill their glasses. I wonder if my village Lafey will be painted orange For the village is usually ignored in these things These are First World problems and we are Seventh World Maybe they fear the Shifta and the heat and the discomfort Even riding in 4WD cars in mud and dust tracks is tiring There is no power to charge smart phones and laptops Or salons to retouch the perm and do one’s nails Or 5 Star Hotels for Nairobi Living away from Nairobi Then again, we would rather they give us the paint money to buy food For the dust has already painted us all shades of orange! In my little understanding, the fight against Gender Violence Is a 365 Days- 366 Days in a leap year- thing, fought 24-7 For women are stripped daily, battered daily, raped daily Women face the cut daily, are denied opportunity daily Women face hardships daily, die giving birth daily So, this 16 days, I won’t be painting my village orange Instead, I wonder how many schools, how many clinics Would have bettered women’s lives if all this money was used wisely. zurikiki/poetry/16-days-of-violence/
