Coercion of thighs Under the persuasion of a deserted road And the weakness of your knees. You may cry out for the cleansing of your womb From the filth, The residue of evil That infects you from the inside.
"You are a murderer, worse than a ******! You stole life!"
Could you plead and longer to Whatever lies above your matted hair And shaken shoulders To tear out this grudge That feeds off your fear? It blooms with a life so Tainted. For an unwanted kiss Is unwanted nonetheless, No matter how gentle Or sweet.
Could you gaze into the mirror, The visage of charred innocence, Swollen abdomen, Bursting with life from inside, A life you fear to resemble Your salted stranger Who took the light from your eyes And fed it to his gluttonous evil. Sever the ties, The umbilical chain of memory Leashing your pleasure To the filth of dominant lust. Begin from the mud on your knees Where you fell to the asphalt Where the Baby's Breath grew in the cracks. Sink into cleansing waters And release.
Forget, but do not forgive. For you wish for the freedom of this birth Like an animal, Caught in a trap, Wishes to gnaw off it's own leg.
Now go. And when the time has arrived, Blossom life within you With a heart so red and swollen From the purity, the tenderness Of a welcomed hand. And it will be love's face that you cradle.
