The Beast Poem by Bob Gibson

The Beast

Rating: 4.8


Imprisoned and chained underground, her cries for help were all unfound
beaten and sexually abused, she whimpered day and night confused
left alone for weeks on end, food pushed through a hole a cold comfort friend
there's no way out all hope is gone, raped and beaten a familiar song
giving birth, underground alone, her screams not heard through walls of foam
there's no fight left no place to hide as this monster tears at her inside
her babies weaned are taken away, only three are left to stay
her son he stoops from ceilings low, in the underground prison down below
no natural light no breath of air, reality has gone beyond despair
she see's the beast! eye, her female child, the evil eyes of a pedophile
how much more can a mother take, how many bones will he break
her daughter screams from another room, she prays it will be over very soon
then he’ll leave through the concrete door, they hold each other and cry some more

My heart bleeds! !

Horrific reports no doubt instigated your message of public reaction Bob. What a shame on humankind, and this needed to be put on paper to be read.
