Gaslighter


he 
keeps up
work on her
to twist and bend
to his n a r r a t i v e,
but she's sure ain't rubber.
she's sticking to the just facts.
he tries to control and confuse, 
yet all efforts get a failing grade
"you can choke on your manipulation,"
that's what the intrepid lady told him.
she woke up with him on top of her,
and she does know he spiked her drink
first, he begs her not to tell,
now denies he raped her;
that's a grave mistake;
there's hell to pay!
he messed with
the wrong
gal
