Honour culture has claimed its cause.

For many a millennia

Males led the differentia.

A ‘duel’ would resolve the flaws,

Countless lives were lost – just because.

Then rule of law brought dignity,

To overcome, bound bigotry.

Whilst this worked for a shortish time …

Those who feel life’s not as sublime,

Now seize … ‘news’ solidarity.
