Chain Reaction

(In a seller of a country villager’s house there was a women held by a chain  round her neck, naked even in sheer winter, in a state of trance, who bore and gave birth to eight children for the guy who bought her from some kidnappers... found out in modern China in 2022 AD!)

 

Do we not saddle the horse and harness the camel?

Milk the cow and yoke the farm cattle?

Do we not for eggs and meat cage the chicken?

    Do we not slaughter hogs and lambs for meat?

As if there has never been scalp-hunters

As if we’ve been vegans, never carnivore flesh-eaters

AS IF we have  stopped slave trafficking for long

As if we never Abducted and raped women and children

As if there are never fettered prisoners in dungeons

It’s been the human practice throughout history

What is the harm? And whence the fuss in media?

 

 

Just suppose they are beasts , all the same

Assume they are unfeeling, beaten and tame

God never overburden his creature

They would lose mind or die of torture

What is liberty? who invented it? why the cackle

Just because a woman is found chain-cooped?
