Analysis of I am Abiku
I am the abiku Child ,
Who abodes the night with a nightmare of being dead at a young age in her mothers house,
And I die at the dead of the night after a young night,
And the dead comes as a pregnant woman of the house,
The dead comes around like a child whose hope has died as a sacrifice,,
When all hope was gone like a ghost night,
And I Die each time I come as a fratenal circle,
How many years will I trouble my mother as a dead womb,
Who die each time I become a adult,
And I dance to the nigh abiku circle,
This is Abiku house of lost hope,
Stay with me as a mother as my children are deceased each time they become puberty.
