Genital Love
I love
You
Take
My hand
I have
To take
Out the
Pleasure
Only pain
Can
Remain
I'll take
My blade
Remove
And
Skim
I need
To protect
You
So I have
No choice
Other than
To cut
You
Genitally

A brave topic well handled, Lynn. Thanks for bringing it to our attention.
I confess that my initial "reading" invoked a sinister concept
familiar to those who were around at the time of the
infamous Lorena Bobbitt case. Those unaware can always
Google her name.
I am happy to be put right and interpret it in its correct
context.
Well written Lynn. It's hard to process the pain that this must cause to the victims. By writing it from the mother's perspective, you have produced a tenderness to, what is, a barbaric ritual x

Nobody writes a comment or verse like you do, David. I don't need to say anymore. Words are, occasionally, not necessary.

As I wrote it from the mother's perspective, who had this procedure carried out on her herself. I decided to replace the maternal love with genital love, as the mother thinks she is protecting her daughter.

Ah...understood.
FGM - (a suitable title?)
