Women Trafficking
Sold as cheap goods
abducted, aborted,
deceived, treated as slaves.
Like robots they move,
told what to eat and wear
how to react and sell.
Raped, maltreated,
they earn some pennies
with the greater share
for the wallets of their masters.
Women, women, women
from many corners in the globe
trafficked as cheap commodities,
a living witness
to our society of lust and greed.
