The fifth of a series of pieces in a literary exposé trying to break the silence of a work of art exhibited by the Legon PRESEC Visual Arts Class in Ghana during the 2018 LIPFEST exhibition.

What our women, wives and mothers go through to sustain the young ones they have brought forth is worth mentioning. They will feed their babies in public. They will not mind showing their nakedness, what takes away their dignity just for us to be fed and stop us from crying. Then in their old age we abandon and not stand by them till their last breath.

She’ll throw away her fame
To endure the shame
And to achieve her aim
