Four Afriku

blood-ridden bed! adolescent girl seized by the throat a man, half naked! 2 new moon, resurrects memories of honeymoon, the loss of virginity, the regrets. 3 on a cold, cold morning, I can imagine in other worlds a hot, hot afternoon. 4 a man is holding a goat down on the ground; also himself!

Yes, it's an awful experience for victims of rape. It never really goes away. Thanks Kim for reading and commenting.
