Pardon Your Misogyny
Excuse me while I scream
your name
Swallowing syllables the wrong way.
Choking.
Excuse me while I bite my lip and
bruise ******.
Nip my tongue.
Break my wrist.
Fighting with soft fists,
fleeing.
Excuse me while I stop, drop,
sit and wait.
Lie low. Ladylike.
The fire's lost sometimes,
deep within my ribs.
Excuse me, it's difficult to dig there.
