Julie Gichuru Finally Addresses The Domestic Violence Rumors Using A Poem

Julie Gichuru is no stranger to gossip and rumors.

For a few years now, there have been rumors perpetuated by gossip blogs such as Media Madness that asserted that Julie Gichuru was being beaten thoroughly by her husband. In fact, Media Madness said that she once got beaten even at the office. Julie so far has avoided talking about it, but today she has responded to the accusations on her blog with some delightful prose called ‘Talk Is Cheap.’ Here goes:

First they said,

“She is married to a very old man,

A veritable sugar daddy,
What a terrible plan!”

Then they said,
“Oh she’s married to a snipper of a lad,
Shame, she robbed the cradle,
How terrible, how bad!”

Then they said,
“He beats her, she gets a whipping now and then,
How can she put up with it?
She is just a pecked hen!”

Then they said,
“That man, he is kaliwad like mad,
She controls things like a nonsense,
So shocking, so sad!”

It seems they must say something,
There’s always something to be said…
Truth means nothing to them,
But remember, keep your head…

While lies are very hurtful, causing sorrow and pain,
Your victory is that the truth quite a different game.
As you sit back and hear the contorted lies they tell,
Say thank you Lord for giving me a life so sweet and well!

And so ensure your affirmation resides within your soul –
Feeding your focus and passion, making you happy and whole.
For they will not stop the talk, it is what they do best –
But talk is cheap, and this they’ll learn when they face this very test.
