No excuses possible

\nThere is no child deserving of abuse.
\nNo victim who it’s right to beat and rape.
\nThe men who use these words as an excuse
\nAre lower far than any sort of ape.<\/p>\n
No “dirty slutty children” are to blame,
\nSuch terms were never part of children’s lore.
\nThose who call the victims by such name
\nMerely help the guilty dodge the law.<\/p>\n
If you were used and damaged as a child
\nOr beaten and abused while loving wife.
\nYou and the truth must first be reconciled
\nBefore you can be given back your life.<\/p>\n
The child or wife should never bear the stains
\nNo guilt for what was done to them remains.<\/p>\n

\nI wrote this in a comment to that piece. Please read it, it is much more
\nimportant and worthy of reading than my work here.
\nI have no experience of abuse, and find it very hard to conceive of how it is
\npossible for any man to behave in such a way.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
