The rape


The violation of my body begins

when you rip my vagina apart

Without my consent

And without consulting my heart.

 

The violation of my mind begins

When you impose laws

conditions and sanction

And my freedom you ration.

 

My index finger raises

to point

My perpetrator

His penis or his hands

I do not fear.

 

I know I am the creator

And a survivor

I cannot be vanquished

Stamped or tramped

 

For I carry the seed 

And so I can end this show

Lest you forget

I have the power to reap and sow!
