I left this
Tucked in a box
For the day I would remember

On a time trail
Sand silk path
That sinks as I walk over

When I approach the day
That time he took away
My virginity

What was mine
Was stolen

And it leaves
A whole in

A place I can never see

No one
Should extol him

Or diminish
My state

From a precipice to a pea


I sprained my ankle and had to do something I rarely do at a medical clinic... I listened to the news. It is still mania inducing, but even more appauling is hearing the US president say anything about a women who is testifying about being raped. This process in itself is something men will never understand. But I am ashamed to hear a president is tweeting about this matter.
