Trauma
She wakes upTrembling, frightened, pale
faced and humiliated
Day and night
When humans become inhumane
And shame has no place to hide.
Hunted before the crowds
Molested behind the bushes
Raped in the moving cars
Relatives, friends, goons,
terrorists or
By political czars.
Mentally mauled, physically
abused
Everyone looks on but never
rescued
Nightmarish moments never
out of sight
Living dead or deadly living
Soul and body always in
fright.
Tender age matters to none
Everything she dreams, is
undone
In a flash, everyone jumps
in
To encash
Her innocence, her trauma,
her conscience
For five minutes of fame
Putting even THE GOD in
shame.
