Another Woman Stabbed Poem by Robert Melliard
Another Woman Stabbed
I see another woman has been stabbed to death.
She had sixteen wounds - I suppose
there could have been more.
A man has been arrested.
It usually is a man, isn't it?
At least she wasn't raped this time.
I've seen so many cases of this kind
(and acid attacks, shootings, stonings,
beatings, and whippings too)
in fifty years of T.V. news
that I've become ashamed of being male.
It must be something in our genes, right?
Hopefully in just a minority of us -
but what a minority!

Hmm....this is an interesting poem. I have to agree with the news lately being filled with the horrors of what one human can do to another. And not even just to other people but animal cruelty also! Which that really really bothers me. But cheer up Robert! Where I live there are just as many horrible crimes being committed by women. We just had one case where a mother and her boyfriend were arrested for killing the mothers child. Not sure yet which one did the actual killing but even if it was the man, what kind of a person does that make her for not protecting her child? A mother's first and most important task is to always protect her children.! So, there are just as many evil women in society unfortunately. Like the poem though. Shows you take to heart how a few men can make all men look bad. And if you think that way then you obviously have a kind heart!
