THE DEVOURING SHEPHERD Hunting men Killing women Butchering children, Belittling mankind Desecrating humanity Preserving cattle Dignifying livestock Grazing in residential area. Maiming men Wasting women Crushing children, Melting mankind Hijacking humanity Choking the earth Suffocating the world. Band of wolves Legion of lions Cluster of tigers Grazing in farm land. The devouring shepherd Roasting men for his beast Idolizing his cattle Immortalizing his livestock A bloody missionary Hunting human Safeguarding animals Awkward shepherd Satanic shepherd. RAPE A DESECRATING MONSTER Poor child hawking on the street Helpless girl sleeping in shanty, Harmless lady working late Unarmed woman walking home, Rape; a debasing masquerade. In jail or in school Victim or victor, Arrested or detained In lonely track or busy road, Rape; a devouring vulture. Attacked or robbed Empowered or overpowered Targeted or outsmarted Ambushed or waylaid, Rape, a dehumanizing beast. Lured or enticed Seduced or used, Lusting or loving Hated or hatred, Rape; a demonizing scorpion. Under the tree, by the slum In the desert, by the stream Bet, game, set up or revenge Forbid battery, forbid rape Rape; a defiling demon. Once raped, always remembered Once molested, always bitter Once violated, always aggressive Once humiliated, always irritated, Rape; a discouraging spirit. SACRED OR NOT....RAPE NOT
