In Her Vision today: A woman's ticket for anything

By Bob Kisiki

There are certain categories of people who, because of either their uniqueness or power, have exclusive rights to door access certain things. Heard of something called poetic licence?

Nobody else can use it, because not everybody can be like us poets. We are special. We have something that, even if ordinary people saw it walk down the street, they would not know what to do with it, let alone know its name.

So we got (I wonder where from) the right to manipulate language, fact and form in ways not
accessible to ordinary people, if it will make our poetry more poetic, thus the term ‘poetic licence'. 

Thus it is with women, too, when they are pregnant. Sometimes people think fertility centres exist exclusively for women who crave the place of motherhood. That is only one of the reasons, but there is another, probably bigger reason - the power that comes with pregnancy.
