Problem is that's how they get away with it- fear and silence.

Hello, Valerie.
There's a poetic form called a mono-stitch, which is basically just a one line poem.
One of the most famous examples is reputed to have been written by Ernest Hemingway and goes a little somethin' like this:
"Classified: Baby Goods: For sale, baby shoes, never worn."
Your poem and the hard-hitting, gut-wrenching impact it creates in so few words, reminded me of that.
Exceptional...
