The Human Rights of a Wayward Woman

Even if she were a whore With a visible moral sore: The licentious from her jaw, Largely The Deprived or poor, A fool seeming to the core, On all days A Bore But broke A Toothless Law, You mustn’t her on paper draw, On her invective pour Nor bang on her door… These, a raising of dust and more, For The Law silly defenses would floor.
