The Rapist Goes To Prison

Rating: 5.0


The court room was packed,
with woman and the judge was too.
Each sentence was stiff...
Thirty years on top of seven lives...
and turning, before being led away..
at each of you he smiled..
how did that make you feel..?
did you get kinda moist around
your eyes....in there..
or did you fill with fear..
and go bone dry..?
i mean if he had you in his cell...
have you any idea what he would
do too you..
many times a day..
for years..and years..
While the guards stand around and try.

In this country, rape is not taken seriously enough iip! thirty years, is the least he deserves for taking a woman's life in dignity away. No should mean NO! and any man who takes what is not offered freely, is a coward. Maybe if we gave out such sentences in this country, there would be far less using date rape drugs, as they do up and down this 'Oh so pleasant land' of ours, every day of the week. I believe society is largely to blame where men think this crime is NOT a crime at all. A highly provocative subject. Dealt with beautifully and a warning to all women alone in the world. Smiling at you Tai, off to the beach to get soaked! in sunshine.
