To me, raping is a more heinous and horrendous crime than murder. Sadly, this crime is proliferating in my country too, by leaps and bounds, not due to poverty but bad governance. Thanks for raising concern and appealing to the conscientious people through this well written poem.

Innocence in human is being raped time and again. The overtakes the morality. These shameless creatures in society deserves befitting punishments. A thoughtful poem on what is happening around without fail.10 **

A beautiful poem that cries for inequalities in life and social ills of society. A meaningful message that serves a wake up call to governments that poverty in all its forms must be addressed totally to prevent other serious crimes. Brilliantly crafted and conveyed. To my Poem List. Five Stars!

A very touching poem. Deeply poignant and gripping. It brought tears to one's eyes. Poverty has many claws that could strangle and leads you to the state of nothingness.

Pathetic plot. But in reality this is what happens. Poverty is the mother of all other social evils prevalent. Very well portrayed sir. Thank-you

Good poem painful message but very real. Then you see a fat government minister driving by in a bentley bought with famine relief funds. You just want to rap him!

Oh, my, this poem is so well-written, but so sad! I hope it is not a product of personal experience. I enjoyed reading it, even though I felt the ending was a foregone conclusion from the title. Keep writing. Keep sharing!

It's not a personal experience but it has been frequently happening in India and Pakistan.
