I quite like the dark side, dear.
Show me your shadows, those
Phallic phalanges, and
Feel up my female.
I quite like the fusty spoors of
Spirits, and semen, and plundered
Blood
Fixed to my skin.
I quite like the emptiness settled in the pit of me—
The sharp taste on my tongue as I lick the edge of abyss.
Because I’m a whore who asked for it, simply by breathing.

The brutal simplicity of your powerful words is astounding. You are right, it is beyond sadness. Sad is a “pleasant” state of mind as compared to others.

It’s really sad, that your character felt that she is destined to be a whore, because nobody deserved to get used then tossed out so carelessly by someone else.

Yes, it is sad. There are countless victims of sexual abuse who are further injured by cruel, desensitized commentary, and ridiculous justifications for these acts of violence–that is absolutely stunning. It is beyond insulting. It’s defamatory. Heartless. Our rape culture breeds perpetrators, then turns victims into the responsible parties. This poem is a statement I wish I didn’t have to make. Thank you for reading, and taking the time to write a comment. Peace ❤
