Inflicting incurable wounds <br />That are ever 'hopeless' to heal <br />Backing abominable crimes, <br />Which they would have cursed <br />And banned for themselves. <br /> <br />Frightful vileness of mortals, <br />Slaying innocent and unsheltered lives <br />Inducing untold anguish that this side <br />Of the grave will not heal, <br />Procuring pain that the greatest <br />Human heart cannot relieve... <br /> <br />Dying faces, bringing undying doom <br />To unseen, spry and bright-eyed <br />Tiny sufferers and victims... <br /> <br />O, ugly and hostile seedbeds! <br />Babes unborn and blameless <br />Ending lives in gory vessels... <br />O, unsightly... bloody spectacle! <br />O, choice unfair... unfair price... <br />O, robbery heartless and eternal!<br /><br />Dorothy Kardas, Psy.D.
