Cradle of Abuse

 

pornographic pictures super glued to the pavement

how depraved is your debasement?

evocative images cut into your sight.

punctuated self abuse

creating a new image of crude,

you’ve lost yourself in the mire

no singing now, the celestial choir.

you stand alone as the accused

your mind a cradle abused.

read it again just now,

read it again just now, again I quote as to the tone ;child, porn, etc blah…” and Lenny says:- were does it mention or even have a tone of child porn? I had no "good intention2 regarding this poem, it relates to a part of the human condition, thats it! Porn has been around for many years, even going back centiuries, just like prostitution.You are stuck in your own rut, you are well versed in religious terminology. Funny that, I have a poem on religion too - havent we all dear!!! Lenny
