As others have already said plain SQL is perfectly adequate in many 
situations.  There are also other ORMs with peewee and ponyORM springing 
straight to my mind, although there's certainly a far longer list.  What 
it gets down to is "horses for courses" and you're the only person who 
(hopefully) knows the course you're running :)
