Thorn Bush

The soldiers invaded our town after the
riot. They were sent by the government to bring us to order:

our men were rounded and beaten up like goats and 

and...

Everyone ran for dear life when they

saw the armoured tankers approaching. They

shot in the air to ensure that we got the 

message that they here for business. 

Infact, they shot anyone who dared to 

protest. I was on my bed resting after the

day's trouble when I heard the sound of

gunshot; I bolted from my bed and jumped out of the window.

I had not gobe far when the nozzle of a 

gun caught up with me. He kicked my leg

and I stumbled and fell down, he then hit 

me square in the face with the gun. I saw 

stars as I landed on tick sharp thorn 

bush. He then tore open my clothes as he 

harshly tore away my innocence with each

ragged breath and roufh thrust and so the circle continues.
