I cannot understand <br />Why there are ugly men... <br />They’re handsome to look at, <br />But that’s only hair and skin <br /> <br />You turn them inside out <br />To have a look within <br />And there is ugliness <br />Festering and rotten <br /> <br />Foreign brides who’re looking <br />For love in a strange land <br />They are lovely women, <br />Looking for helping hands <br /> <br />They want a home that’s safe <br />Where they’ll have family <br />With a loving husband <br />Such is their fantasy... <br /> <br />All too often, reality <br />Is greatly different <br />For all those men who write <br />Want her to serve their ends <br /> <br />She can’t know the good men <br />From those who’re not her friends <br />She’s taking a chance that <br />She’ll meet an unhappy end...<br /><br />Karl Stuart Kline<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/2-3-russian-brides-2-9-8-01-some-become-victims/
