Tombs

Women lie in tombs.
No smiles, no dancing, no talk. 
In a big hurry they rushed out.
Now? Not a sound leaves their mouth!
Still as the harsh winter ground.
As silent as Democratic prosecutors.
Who let evil men, hunt city sidewalks for women.
Just out to have fun.

These evil men will kill again. 
Anyone woman on the street.
She’s a killers dream dessert.
His moonlight treat!
He will smile and be free.
While she, entombed dances with death.
And with no warm arms of her family.

I am tired of hearing about violence, I am tired of people telling me lock your doors, you need a motion light on the back of the house, don't walk late at night. It is ashamed that one cannot even walk their dog or worry about someone picking up one of your grandchildren for whatever reason. I am tired of the worry. I wish there was a sapping machine inside people for those that have awful thoughts.

I wish the same, Eve. Much depends on where you live. If nutjobs run the DA offices, one is in deep doo doo. This applies to men and women. Too mama you dead infants, women, men and police! It is sickening I Know Eve, but horribly true... Pangie

Well expressed! Indeed, streets are becoming more dangerous to navigate, as people become more violent and lawless. True. If Soulless Marxism continues to flourish, we will be back to Paleolithic Times, but with radioactive mutants instead populating the world. Interesting write. Joe.

I guess women do not care? That’s Ok,Joe,I do care! Is life so useless, a poem that values a woman life is meaningless? No wonder women are getting killed. And children. Writes that devalue women and bring in guffaws are popular. I will not be trendy!! Let the hah hah poets smirk at the loss of life. It’s not funny. It’s so infantile, Joe.in memory of the 2nd NYPD officer who died today.In memory of Brianna Kupper, in LA a few days ago! Panagiota Thanks.Prince, such a soul you have.
