Rape of Innocence

by Tom Kitt — Read all 95 poems by Tom Kitt

This poem came to life from a documentary I watched that described the plight of children in one off the poorer South American countries. This was prior to the Pope's visit.

Rape of Innocence

Foraging for food in garbage dumps
Living out of cardboard boxes
Disease and pestilence in the air
Papa, have you shown you care?

"Suffer the children to come unto me"
For only as children may we enter
Humility is the way to be
Papa set these children free.

Sad excitement in their eyes
Christmas in each load’s disguise
Another day staying alive
Dirty Angels & garbage flies.

"Increase and multiply"
Contraception - not allowed
Every life - the right to live
Jesus crying in his crib.

Massive citadels of gold and stone
No children to dirty the Throne of gold
Ignorance keeps it high & cold
Many don't know that they are owned.
