Thank you Sue, Marty, and Maureen once again. Really appreciate everyone's comments, as I must admit that for some reason I was in two minds whether or not to post this one at first...

A strong piece, Catherine, and definitely worth sharing. Sadly, it will hit home with too many readers. I agree with Shelley re the "one long verse".

Well done Catherine. I think it is of little consequence how your poem is set out. Somehow, I instinctively knew how it would end even though your words were subtle. For any who have experienced such evils, the words bring that sickening feeling to the pit of their stomach. I believe it is very important to speak out about these atrocities so more people are aware and sadly there seems to be more incidences coming to light every day. What a great vessel Bush Poetry is to inform others of not only these dark secrets but of any areas of life where there is a need for people to be more enlightened. Thankyou
