Therese Gramercy . . . the girl named Trees

Tree at Dusk

Rampage

Every time he watches the evening news
they sensationalize stories of women abused
with one more report of a woman found dead
and he goes on a rampage in his head.

Groups are formed but here are his questions:
Why are the women the ones who shelter battered women?
Where are the men to protect them from such dread?
again he goes on a rampage in his head.

Until our leaders stand up and defend women as they should,
until the injustice is gone and replaced with pure good,
until the last man of violence against women is dead,
he will go on a rampage in his head.
