I watch many true crime shows, a morbid
interest perhaps.
One thing that disturbs me immeasurably is too
many women get murdered in the crime cases.
Excuse while I uncharacteristically drop an expletive:
You have to be a fucking monster to murder a woman
You have to be a fucking monster to rape a woman.
Yet too many of these monsters roam the earth
raping and murdering women every single day.
Often the monsters are husbands or boyfriends of the
murdered women, the numbers staggering.
As I wrote in a poem once before, 140 women and
girls are murdered daily in this world that can be
extremely dangerous for the loveliest of all fairer sex.
And I don’t understand why this world has to be so
unfair to all those women murdered every day.
And I cannot imagine the countless tears that have
fallen, the unceasing heartaches.
May they all go to a place in the afterlife where it
won’t matter that they were brutally taken out of
this world, where they will experience a peace and
a happiness beyond words, beyond anything imaginable.
