Neglect
Some people say the dead cannot speak.
They speak.
We speack.
I speak.
But the world refuses to listen.
The world is afraid.
We too are afraid.
I am afraid.
So please listen.
Their was a teenage mother
and her beautiful baby daughter.
The father
had left them all for another.
The strong mother did not mind
she had moved on for some time
But the small baby whined
And whined and whined.
Misfortune was approaching
The mother met another boy
The teenager's name was Troy
Troy was more than a bad boy
He liked to play with people like toys
To him,
Everybody was a toy.
One day, Troy had come over
to help the baby mother.
She left to take a shower
and the baby was left in his power.
As the mother took her time.
Troy held the baby.
Touched the baby.
Stripped the baby.
And stripped himself.
The baby cried.
and screamed.
Died.
Troy was gone, and mommy was done.
She called for the only one.
Who thought could help her
and her dead child.
The cops came and so did baby's father.
She was accused of child abuse
and neglect
Her story was
"ridiculous"
"impossible"
"psychotic"
Her story was true.
But her listeners were in neglect.
The world is in neglect.
