The Zareba
Taken from a meager hovel
Held in the zareba
The young girl dreams of her rescue
An escape eureka
The monolith brings young girls here
Holding them for bounty
Their evil motives not transparent
Deeds illegal in county
Inward my heart caves in with pain
An admirable dream held
Children could live in happiness
Freedom unparalleled
All sex trade gone children adored
Each family could live fed
Hunger unheard of over the world
And each a comfortable bed

I have a dream that all in the world
can live in joy without fear, with
food and clothing that meets their needs..
No poverty so bad that parents sell
their children into a situation that
is degrading..
