Pack of the Nippon beast
Scavenging the East
Expansion of territory
With primeval savagery
Decades in torment
A mourning continent
Women their first reward
Pleads for mercy ignored
Coercion and abduction
Dragged to ‘comfort stations'
An army institution
Deployed for prostitution
Forced into the brothels
Abused and brutalized
Whole families murdered
Daughters dehumanized
Commodified rape centres
Virgins, underaged
Raped, stabbed, beaten, starved
Enslaved and caged
Injected no. 606
Containing arsenics
Tens of thousands died
Of disease or suicide
A life of constant pain
Forever in shame
Apologies never made
And if ever, they come too late
