The Web Poetry Corner - Azra Daniel Francis - Hooray!

Hooray!

by

Azra Daniel Francis

A child prostitute died today,

Despite dozens of Golden Ages
Of dozens of World Civilizations,

A child prostitute died today.

The rest of us lived oblivious
In those last moments she convulsed
Into her murdering unfeeling eternity.

A child prostitute died today.

Hooray.

Now we can go on living conscience-free.
Not our fault the little thing was such a disgrace
To our top-of-the-food-chain specie!

Child prostitutes are murdered every day.
