This fine evening
While firewood fetching
Natasha did sing
Darkness doesn’t find me here she was hoping
But darkness was soon approaching
And the night slowly creeping
She didn’t see him coming
Because she was busy thinking
What they’ll be eating
So Bill came mutely
The next thing he did wasn’t elderly
He never acted manly
He raped her brutally
How could he do something ugly and ungodly?
He found what he wanted so easily
Imagine she was sixteen apparently
He took her pride knowingly
And left threatening fiercely
Twice she felt unworthy
Twice not shown sympathy
First circumcised without pity
The cutting is filthy
But in this black city
It’s a way of being wealthy
Because the dowry will be in plenty
Of course we all know it’s nasty
Second her pride taken
Her heart broken
Her pain unspoken
Nothing undertaken
Nothing like care taken
Twice stricken
What will she do??
