She sat alone, together with her thoughts<br>
On a slab near a lit dark street, in the dark of day<br>
Posing healthy and sane but torn far away
<p>She is the child tattered morrow<br>
A run-away from lasting sorrow<br>
Hear – her words are not twaddle<br>
Learn from her maturing struggle</p>
<p>Love as real as fake, but for <a class="zem_slink" title="Brussels Barbarians" href="http://www.brusselsbarbarians.com/" target="_blank" rel="homepage">Baba’s</a> sake<br>
She drinks from this sorrowful lake<br>
Endures pain she could not take<br>
To tend babies she should yet not make</p>
<p>Jammed future was hers – certain end<br>
Under the belly of her father’s friend!</p>
