Sting Waspi Sting

A woman is expected of
A woman is mistreated in this society
A woman is held in contempt by the 
government of this country.

Women have suffered all of these three

By convention, history and lies women 
have suffered for simply being their kind

2024 you would expect so much more 
than the prejudices and inequalities of 
decades before.

But here we are - so enlightened are we?
We make women work more and more and
more when they have earned the right to 
live comfortably free.

It’s madness when you see women scared 
and homeless for no fault of there own - and 
then blamed for for the reasons they find 
themselves in need?

Women that deserve more than respect for 
simply what they are and what they’ve been, 
what they’ve given to our society!

The But yet they’re seen as an easy target for the 
power and it’s greed.

They say that they’ve improved society for all 
to see but the prejudice and inequality against 
these women is alive and real.

It’s so very shameful to see indeed.

Sting waspi STING for women in need.
