Preserve the culture I will
But not overlook the spear
Planted at the entrance to my hut
Nor will I the owner
In bed with my wife
My daughter’s joy will not be taken
By the cut of an ancient knife
Should I sell out?
An incumbent generation
To an out-of-time tradition?
I must not.

*Preserving the African culture is quite commendable, but the ill aspects of it like Female Genital Mutilation should be ignored.*
*The Maasai used to plant a spear outside the hut of your peers and you could legally go in and sleep with your Friends wife.*
