Your so beautiful, so elegant, so warm, and pure, animals of the wild glide along your skin not knowing how you feel within.

Youve been bruised and damaged by hateful ungratful men. You shine the warmth of the day upon our skins and let us know that we are important.

  Your men and children effortlessly die and we watch and hear you cry we should all ask ourselves why? Are we infected with the same disease of lust, glutteny, and greed?

That we cant help this beautiful woman we call Africa could it be that we dont have time or is it that it doesn't affect us? What if it was your child?

Do we ever stop and think about that?

The same Woman that you stole her men from, beat them, maimed them, killed them, and for what?

Now she is crying out for some help will you give it too this woman named AFRICA?

   DO YOU CARE?

Is this a poem or meant to be prose?

Detail, go into it more, while I do know some of what you are talking about with africa being damaged.  Tell us why is it like this, what is so bad, how is she damaged.
OR
Better show us
