Lovely depiction of the metamorphosis of primitive form of slavery into modern-day subjugation, well articulated and nicely penned in good rhyme scheme with conviction. Thanks for sharing Rosie.

My pleasure Mr. Dike. It is an ongoing battle which seems to have no end.

I am impressed by your thought provoking poem, particularly this stanza: 'In the 21st century mist Slavery still exists There are more people enslaved today Than at any time in history The most common form slavery! ' Kudos for the last stanza too: 'Each of us can make ethical decisions To help stop slavery People of conscience need to awaken To denounce and act against All forms of modern slavery In a so-called modern society! ' 10/10 for this nice poem.
