Hungry Predators
Rose is beautiful
protected by thorns
She is beautiful too
like the rose , but alas
her beauty and chastity
laid bare unprotected,
prone to attacks of
of predators awaiting,
like hungry jackals
behind the bush to
to pounce on hapless
prey grazing grass;
Oh God the creator
how and when will you
protect the womenfolk
from those treacherous men
who remain ever so brutal
despite showered by waters
of civilization for years and years
