In the Unlikely Event
Whenever there is a natural disaster of any kind,
We talk about it, and it is all over the news.
But for the unnatural things, when I was a kid,
People often balked at exposing it, and had many different views.
I’m referring to the unnatural disaster of molesting of a child.
I’m sorry it happens; it happened to me, but of one thing I’m now rather glad
That many people expose it today, rather than hide it and allow it to continue
And aren’t as likely to blame the victim instead of the one who’s deeds were bad.

(I checked the little box to blur this poem, but I can’t tell if it did and humbly apologize if it didn’t.)
It did! Brave poem with a mighty heart.
This poem is purposely neutral in tone in order to tell a profound truth!
