Another case of women held hostage
This time over in Cleveland, Ohio
Enchained in the basement ten years, an age
Their young lives captive, blighted, stifled growth
Assaulted, raped, miscarriages, and two
Or more children, imprisoned by a guy
Who's now ashamed because he's caught, the glow
Of scrutiny unbearable, but why
Didn't he feel more empathy? So shy
Now, so dominant then, so full of rage
Taken out on those helpless girls we knew
Only from ten-year-old pictures they fly-
Posted on lamp-posts as the search engaged
Fruitlessly. But they're alive and free now
