Elucidate
Illuminate
Compensate for the time
Stolen from me
The tears raped
With no delicacy
Or remorse
From my ducts
As the cold onlookers
Looked away in
Such uncomfortable silence
Turn another blind eye
No one will ever hear the cry
Unless it’s done through
All the proper channels
The proper steps to take
When someone is trying
to force and rape
and you are in alarm
that your womanly form
has come directly into
the way of harm
Of being aggravated
Complicated
Disintegrated
By a soul of tainted love
Cry fire in the building
Scream of the flames
That rip through the ceiling
Melting off the vinyl
Perhaps if you’re lucky
Someone will come
To send the man fleeing
Doubtful by and large
Since those that cause harm
Are free and clear
Clean-pressed in the court room
Smooth talking with impeccable charm
Good old boys
All American guys
Could never make a girl bleed
Or clamp a hand across the mouth
Nevermind the wetness from her crying
They could never cause an emotional break
That turn into salty tears
Of nightmares stuck
In cyclic motions
Of harsh regard.
The charges were dropped
Decisions were made
The woman has to be wrong.
How dare she wear that dress
With the revealing back?
Is the whispered response
Or those stiletto heeled shoes?
Those bunny pajamas?
The shirt of blues clues?
Shameful strumpets deserve
Each pain-riddled to turn
Ages 8 or 80 should immediately learn
Never to tempt by being around
Unless they want to feel the burn.
Does it make you feel pretty?
Do you like it rough?
I’m just going to fuck you
Be quiet I’m going to cum
Stop screaming
Don’t make me use this gun
Are the disruptions in the dream
That was once the life
Of a girl just trying to be a woman
A woman just trying to be a person
A person degraded into an
Unwilling whore
No one to save
Each mutilated babe
That is tortured
To make sure they are prevented
From tempting all the men
They are kept protected, safe from harm
Made to be averse virgins
So their husbands will know that
It’s true innocence they are purchasing
The genitalia is being stitched
So safe and pure
Until a man
Comes tumbling in
Takes the bride
And forces himself in
Destroying her insides
The blood and semen mix
In swirls of white and red
She’ll never convince anyone
That this isn’t what she earned.
