you who stand
in the shadows
what makes you think
for
a
second
that what you're doing is okay?
you do not gain power
over me
her
him
anyone
by standing in the shadows
calling to those
who walk the streets
what we wear
does not affect you
...surprised?
the fact that I wore a dress
skirt
shorts
jeans
sweatpants
heels
sneakers
CLOTHING
does not
give you the right
to comment on my legs
***
stomach
chest
BODY
because all you are
is a voice in the shadows
so do not whisper
yell
grab
touch
OUR BODIES
for in the shadows
is where you are meant to stay.
