Child Abuse

Child Abuse
I don’t remember writing this

and she blew out the candle

or she took up alms, and set them alight

sparks of flame to the Augustan air

or she died

and they know, all of them know

and it is so wrong

or it is impossible, yes impossible

that would not have happened

I am a man, you are a man,

stop this now, no let up let go

let’s play a game, in which I kill

an old child molester, and you ignore it
