Why should I suffer? Why should I feel the shame?






(Image taken from here)

There are many victims of rape in the recent times. Justice is not done to most of them  especially, poor families. For them life is not just the same after rape. There is no emotional or moral support from the family or society. They are always teased and treated apart as if it was their mistake. And people who made their lives miserable are free birds!! I strongly question Why should the victim suffer? Why should the victim feel the shame?



My body is teared,
I'm brutally raped, They are free
and I'm sinner?

Society greets
me with catcalls, I'm also
raped mentally!

Yeah, well highlighted, these things keep happening.

A very painful and sensitive subject but it's still happening to women all over the world, more so in our eastern society. Your haiku speaks it.

I completely agree with you. Too often rape victims are blamed!

We need to keep speaking (shouting!) out about this atrocity. It's not as bad in the U.S., but rape victims are still often seen as "asking for it" and their behavior is questioned as well.

This is something to be strongly questioned! A very powerful and touching haibun!

So sad and full of truth ~~ society looks at things the wrong way - in many instances ... and this is one of them! Nicely done!

The sinners roam around freely, while the victim is never left in peace.
Well said :)

the words you penned here should hit those who commit the sin... actually they should be hanged the moment they were caught.
