Time’s up

by LeydisProse

Time’s up Times up! Hollywood says, glad for sordid Weinstein for setting up the stage.., but, please do explain that there’s a sitting President who publicly claimed to grabbing women’s pussy.. all because he can! Times up! but, the script has not been reversed, the discourse dies a little every time a women’s story is subjected to shame. Time’s up, for who, I ask? When only the story of the powerful is being told! Who will play the little girl who’s innocence got taken away? When Barbie is still playing doctor with Ken, yet no one says, Ken is a grown up man! Who’s playing the story of the women who can’t report her husband for rape? How can he rape her? She belongs to him! Time’s up, I wonder when! When time is a concept we don’t understand... and raping someone gives you five months in the can? Time’s up, but who will play the story? When our original sin starts with parents who had sex with their offspring’s!! Shiit, Adam and Eve... you really are dammed, damming us to perpetual violence to the very ones we give birth!! Time’s up! It’s really inspiring. I hope that legislatively it creates an impact. I hope parents all over the earth begin to openly talk to their children about molestation and rape. We all know the math... 90% of all rape is perpetuated by someone you’ve already met! Time’s up! The phone’s ringing.... in the time I wrote this script, someone else was already raped!
