Rapists In Academic Regalia Poem by Raimi Babatunde

A dirty old fool I met
Academically and intellectually sound
He is s loving father
Married to a Queen mother
But the is morally bereft

They lurk around our schools
Especially our campuses
Like vampires they gather
Discussing their trophies
And who has done the new girl
Look, I am not your regular girl

You failed me for sex
To manipulate me into submission
Even if I actually failed
It is an event, not a terminus
But your time is up
Your last card you have played

Even if I choose to mate
Is it with a dirty old Doctor or Academia?
Where virile men abound
Your spacious office you desecrate
By that, you committed sacrilege
A crime against humanity

For years you have won
With the weak and ignorant
You pursued them even to the point of their dissertation
But from the beginning
It was not so!
You are an enemy of State

If you ever succumbed
If you were ever violated
The hour has come
For your complete liberation
Let us wire up
Implicate and weed them all out
They are dangerously cancerous

If I am Male, you allow sorting
So, if I am female, it's a devil's choice
I get an hotel of your choice
I call you, feed you
And you come to mate
May the God of thunder strike you

Your time is up
Have you heard that of Obafemi Awolowo University?
What about the ones they try to cover?
It's but for a while
None can suppress the truth
They are everywhere
Rapists in academic regalia

Today, I invoke judgement
On all these evil a a academic cabals
And you that aids them
Enough is enough
Somebody must speak
That justice be served
And with my poem; I just did
