2013.10.?

neglected terrified animals with blank stares

move humans to action

a stance to stop this

we prosecute these humans that brake the code

yet we allow young beautiful women to be treated the same

with no repercussions

young beautiful wild powerful tigresses

broken over time till blank obedient stares

family, communities, society sits and watch

the husband praised and hailed

wow what a contradiction

and you ask me to marry?

why would i choose to live forever in a cage?

i choose to be wild and free

to live as god intended for me
