On Abortion
Avis
On Abortion
Today I’ve seen violence, merciless and cruel
A tiny babe torn limb from limb, in a bloody pool
Today I’ve heard a silent scream in an agony of mute appeal
An innocent infant crushed alive, with no thought or feel
Today a vulnerable victim of man’s misdeeds
Has been wrenched and torn alive
Has never had the air to breathe
Or even taste the flavour of life
Today, a hypodermic, so healing in its powers
Is being used to shrink life dead
within a matter of hours
Today, the creator of life – the sacred womb
Is being so soiled and degraded, to make a messy tomb
Today it is happening
Today it is real
The tears on my cheeks bear testimony
That man’s an un-condemned criminal

"Brings back memories. Superb, shocking, vivid. Innocence shattered by reality. You must keep writing. " -- Suz, Sharjah, UAE.
"this gives voice to the millions of unborn children aborted over the years. This is truly a wonderful piece and a potential piece!" -- e. rocco caldwell.
"ERC. Thank u. Sir, your appreciation means a lot to me. The documentary horrified me. I shudder when I think of it even today, 15 yrs later. " -- Avis.
"Great poem, since carries in it a strong message, which every individual literate or illliterate needs to read and understand. Way to go Avis, even if 10 people reading your poem decide against abortion, trust me that would be a big difference!!" -- Jitendra Pande.
"Abortion - A topic which is so much spoken about and yet has been treated as just one of those not so happy things - ur poem helps to bring out the pain and agony of the aborted fetus. The use of words like merciless, torn, bloody, cruel, etc., bring out what we all tend to forget... the life of the unborn fetus. As an individual in favor of women and against female foeticide i am very happy that u have taken the initiative to bring out the fact that abortion is not something interesting but something that causes pain and agony... and we need to make more people aware of the fact... So Keep up the good work." -- Sharon.
"Hi Avis,JRB here. I've just come across this poem and it's truly unbelievable. The lines roll with strength that is moving and almost disturbing at the same time. It proves that like me, you have a natural passion for writing. Hugely impressive. Keep it up Avis!" -- Jack.
"Should I call this a beautiful poem?I don't think I can relate the term abortion with beautiful.The usage of the words and the message it conveys is very strong.Keep going.." -- Abu, Mumbai, Maharashtra, India.
