Not all men

JB

"Not all men!"

They holler and cry

As women around them start to die

Dropping like flies

From suicide

Because the past they have to hide

To keep abusers safe in the laws eyes 

Or be called a whore for their demise

Because they can't prove what happened when they got scarred for life

Or the years they spent and tears they cried

 

"Not all men" 

They shout and chant

As the women try to scream but know they can't

And the famous people ramble and rant

About the words they say women enhance

Despite this being their only chance

Of happiness after who got in their pants

By reason of drinks being in their hands

 

" Not all men"

They repeatedly say

Ruining lives along the way

By forcing women slay

Themselves with knives

Hidden in their desk drawer. 

 

But as we all know, not all men are to blame

for all this horror and bloodshed and shame.
