LITTLE SLAVE GIRL

LITTLE SLAVE GIRL

I was a little slave girl

That grew up poor and used

I thought no one wanted me

There was only evil that I could see.

 

The world had a claim on me

I could never find a place to hide

I would run here and there

Not from my asking,it's so unfair.

 

I looked around and all I saw

Was other little girls as lost as I.

The world didn't want us,but wouldn't let us go

They put us on a stage,like in a show.

 

Hunger came to get us

Said,how much will you give?

Nothing for that one

She doesn't deserve to live.

 

Then alcohol stepped in

Said,what's your price?

Nothing,are you kidding

Shes not worth the sacrifice.

 

Then in came big coke

Pushing me up front,He wasn't shy

Saying,make me an offer

Or this day she will die.

 

A man stepped out

In front of the crowd.

His hand went up

And He spoke very loud.

 

I'll make you an offer

One you can't deny

For this little slave girl

On the cross,I offer to die.

Obviously you are far stronger than you think. You lean on a crutch, when you could stand tall and straight.

So true Blueroad.Thank you for your comment.

Poetry is either something that lives like fire inside you or else it is nothing, an empty formalized bore around which pedants can endlessly drone their notes and explanations.
