Rape Trees

The cartels
control everything.

Making more money
off human trafficking than
they ever did drugs.

A single jug of water
and debts to settle on
the other side.

Young girls
given their birth control
and sent out towards
the border.

Wandering past
all those panty-filled
rape trees sprouting up,
wondering if this is the beginning
of a better life.
