“ Speaking With A Bitterness “

there is no palatable way to say that the land you were born on is the same land that the largest amount of domestic violence bloodshed is

there is no palatable way to say that your body is part of a statistic

there is no palatable way to say that i am disgusted by predators, monsters, villains

there is no palatable way to describe men without calling them predators, monsters, villains

there is no palatable way to put this nicely

for how dare you to ask of me to trust that that you are not one of them

would you like me to show you my trauma

would you like to touch the crime scene that the pigs did not try to help me with

would you like me to show you where he touched me with my no

would you like to see how far down my throat he went

would you like to see where i regurgitate his presence

his ghost

finding every way to get the remains out of me

or would you prefer to feel my blood pressure rise when i am in a room alone full of men

who would be the first to take my screams as moans

as there is no palatable way to say that i am fearful to fall in love with a stranger who desires my neck on a rope or in his hand, being in control of my last breath

being in awe of the fear in my eyes

forthere is no palatable way to start the conversation that woman have already been living through

I’m back pals!

apparently I was too popular and too publicly sad and my old blog was deleted, I thought it might be good for me but it turns out no one else wants to hear my poetry and I can’t go more than a week without venting to strangers so here we are.

If you followed me before please come back! and feel free to spread this around so I can find all the folks I used to be mutuals with
