Female Feticide (Foeticide)
In general, they say
The man-woman ratio
Is about even
Except for uncivilized societies
Where ignorance reigns
Rosebuds are suffocated
And little fairy wings cut
Through fetal sex determination
And selective abortion
All for the preference
For sons and money
What evil honor is there
In the killing of your daughters?
