Statistics are terrible, we all agree,
Thousands, even millions, annually
Lose their lives to abuse and slavery.
It's deplorable, I'm sure we all agree,
When Daddy's liquored up, taking PCP
And comes home to beat the Hell out of me
And of course it's a shame, we all agree,
That so much is done with impunity,
In many nations, it's done legally!
I think it's wonderful that we all agree,
I'm happy that something eventually
Will be done for children so much like me.
I even think that you will agree with me,
I'm more than just another casualty,
More than anything that you thought I'd be
But since everything's done so slowly,
It's too late to do anything for me
And I'll already be a mortality...

I would like to translate this poem
Very strongly penned and I might add, sorry to say it is a matter of fact in this horrible crule world today... Very well penned and to the point, leaves the reader with anger and discust as we are part of society too, the good part, only the evil surives..... Bonnie
