bring back those young girls

Excuse me while I Puke
I hear screams of virgins watching 
their innocence being tortured. 
I see flowers hiding in the shadows 
covering their eyes with shame. 
I smell the putrid odors, 
fuming from the stench 
of bush meat eating scavengers.
Forcing intimacy on cherubs and angels. 
I see abused women and children, 
giving up and dying because 
no one is looking for them.
I saw the First Lady of indifference 
at the mall caressing a Gucci collar 
for her little poodle dog.
I heard that birds still sing
and flowers still bud. 
Right now I cannot enjoy 
their contrite delight. 
My eyes are filled with blood. 
Is there anymore-
Bizarreness to be Ignored 
AS I puke.
