Why People Rape


No more is it what it should be

No more is it for pleasure

No more will it be fun

For when your fun aligns with cruelty

What joy nourish your ego

Murder in the cathedral called us out


I speak against them

Them that tear a heart open

And not just her skirt

When our boys are raised to be possessive

When vengeance flows like an ocean in them

When their veins long to subdue

Then they will catch fun in cruelty


I speak to the mothers

I beg you for tomorrow

I beg you for today

Glance at yesterday and make tomorrow

Raise sons with compassion and empathy 

Raise them with values and morals

Raise them responsible with dignity


I speak to the fathers

What sought of model are you

Why sow seed and not mentor

Why model tomorrow's danger

Many a son are without model

Yet models of havoc they cherish


Nothing justifies rape

Not even nudity

Not even your anger or unforgiveness

Only a seared heart 

Only a callous heart

And when you smell one 

YOU, talk them out of their cave

And when you sense he is mean

Rub off your love on him that he may shrink off his rage to let go his cage

To some of them: " Daddy don't just want to buy it " or " mummy is just being difficult ".  It forms a bad pattern when children get used to the culture of " there is no money", "No you can not have it", "We can not buy it now", "Stop wasting my money", "Monies are not plucked on trees", "do you think I steal money" and much more. Many children make a request because they know and believe it is Daddy and mummy's responsibility to provide everything and whenever this fails to happen, they feel less loved. It might be just best to enlighten them about how people earn money or income and how money circulates. When children are made to understand how salaries are being paid then they would be more considerate rather than being wasteful or un
