Stereotypical male with a sheepish grin standing stalking right behind me. I will not run, I am not afraid! He grabs for me, spins me around to smell his smile and soak in his presence - what a feeling of apathy we give each other in different forms. He pulls at my clothes. I try to resist but my efforts are useless - his chemistry overpowers me does he enjoy these little power trips? I am naked before him, shivering from the wind. I am not as vulnerable as I appear. I have a poison I will be happy to share with him... knock me down throw me down climb on! climb on! I am down. Move in... Enter me... he gives me all he has completely ignorant to all that I have He laughs. He thinks he has won. He withdraws from my person and covers his shame. 'Was it good for you?' he asks. I wipe a tear from my eye. 'No,' I whisper. He laughs again and begins to leave. 'You are a brave man,' I call after him, 'Raping someone with AIDS...'  View Others Comments Comment on this Poem |
