Part I-Inquiry

Why is human trafficking in Philadelphia and what is being done to combat it?

Part II-Main Presentation

Poem

We live in a city

The city of Brotherly Love,

That I now pity

Because I thought it above.

There is so much traffic

On I-95, 

That the traffic gets graphic

And turns to a hive.

Did I forget to mention

The traffic was of humans?

With all of the tension,

We have been avoiding our fellow man

That receives little pension.

And lives in a pan.

Philly’s becoming a hub

For moving innocent people

And putting them on subs

Away from their steeples.

Shipped off because of location,

Between places like NYC

Around this great nation

And across many seas.

Women and children

Torn from their families

Without any siren

Because of their inabilities

Or without any reason.

These people have problems,

They are poverty-stricken

And have failing immune systems

So they’re just trying to get chicken

The inability to stop it

Is because of the way it’s hidden

And how the people commit

To keep it in layers that are forbidden.

This needs to be stopped

One way or another.

It is not ok for someone to be popped

When they might be somebody's mother

Because they said that out they would opt.

Laws are being made

In order prevent this

But people can be paid only so much

To put human trafficking into the abyss

You can help stop it

In January 2013

Where women and children will benefit

From things that will make them clean

That people will donate for no profit.

Everyone deserves a second chance,

Everyone can become better

And you can help someone to enhance

Their life just by getting them a sweater.
