A Goddess Raped Poem by Dann Thomas

A Goddess Raped

Rating: 5.0


No greater temple desecrated
No greater god mocked
When we in silence watched
A little life bled in the dust
For hate and greed and lust

Her crime was being a girl
A simple Indian girl
Raped and burnt into the sand
In the soil we call our motherland

Her crime was being a girl A simple Indian girl Raped and burnt into the sand In the soil we call our motherland....oh; it's very heart touching; feel tears in my eyes...
