Silenced By His Own Sins

Rating: 5.0

The Protector 10

The rape victims
asked the protector
to intervene to elect
a woman to head
the sporting federation.

Elections were held, but
the rapist-murderer
manages a stooge of his
and his team to get "elected"
to head the federation.

the banana republic!

again
the protector
is conspicuous
by his absence
and continued
silence.

A sportswoman
of international repute
winner of Olympic Medal
who stood by the victims
in their struggle, all through
hangs her shoes,
out of shame for the nation
and fear for her life!
she surrendered her shoes
in public, before the press
and left weeping!

A sportsman
who had won a medal
in the Tokyo Olympics
surrendered his coveted
National Award
in protest!

But
the protector
of the banana republic
who waxes eloquently on
empowerment of women
is absent and silent.

Silenced By his Own Sins!
