Whisper through the world tonight
Leaving never makes a sound
Ghosts are dancing, you in fright
Another word to bring you down
Ripping, biting, gnashing teeth
Kisses felt without a breath
Tossing turning in your sleep
Love is both your fear and grief

'I hate you!” I screamed out in the dark
“I hate you! I hate you!” as the sight broke my heart.
Tears

Bent Smile
I washed my body
because dirt was there
I chopped it all off
Maybe it was my hair?
I threw away those high heels
and
The vile violence I fought
Until no fight left
Was subdued by the lewd onslaught
I scream but the ears are deaf
If I reason
Intimate atrocity!
What have you done to me?
I said no,
But you took it out of my control.
You beat me!
You broke me!
You hurt
by Byrd Hunter
Rape in the Dark
The lights are flickering and another street goes dark
No police in sight and another woman is assaulted
