Merciless Killings of Baby Girls
By Rattle_Spear
24 October 2005
Yes, life can also be sad. Especially when HIV infected men think they can be cured by molesting a child.

Where was the beginning,
There is no end.

When will the killing of young girls ever stop,
Why can't their parents keep them safe and sound?

We live in a third world state,
With first world status.
There is no respect for property or life,
It is nothing for a criminal to take your life.

They enter your homes by night and day,
Your little girls to take away!
Where will it end,
Who has to pay?

Nobody knows,
Nobody cares.
Only the kids are left with the tears,
The scars may go away.
But the nightmares are here to stay?

God only knows,
And He will not say!

I know you have put please disregard this poem, however I found it very strong, and having heard about such issues, I can see why you wrote it. If you do change it, keep the body of it, its strong and unless more people know what happens how can anyone ever stop it? Well done.

Yes, I should have retracted the original notice on my poem as I have succeeded in changing the format. On a sadder note…..Another small boy went missing on the Cape Flats today. “Grabbed by an unknown man from a group of small children playing in a field.”  
Thank you Sheppard :p
