Rapture For Rapists

Everything you did to me Is already done to you What a weak man it takes to rape You can never take my essence In fact your muddy mutters rather Sound like desperate crimson cries of an infant One who had too little of this too much of that And still your parents are not your scape goat You choose to try and take what is lacking inside of you You refuse to strive and make your soul worthy of a view that even sinners have a shot at redemption and forgiveness So as sordid sips and Freudian slips you dip inside ME trying to find YOU...oh lost soul. Here is what happened to me after the rain shame and defeat dissolved I remained a level of anger that is quiet and reserved but strong as in an activist You can not take my innocence for your strength It does not work that way for I am a magnet I pull your strength and grew the balls you wish you had to be a real power that flesh between us is temporary but the soul we have is eternal and you stain yours with cruelty and lack of worth.

I keep being embarrassed to be a male. My gender has a problem. Evolution screwed up somehow. We're not all bad. Sorry you came across a misogynist. All my poems are short and I wrote one called "Extension event" to express my anger. It's in my list if you want to read it.

Thanks for reading and sharing. I love short poems! I look forward to reading more of yours! And thanks for being one of the good guys. I feel your heart even online. I know not all guys are bad just as all women aren't good.

Out of the mire, water lilies grow and bloom....they find the strength to face life with positivity. Such are the thoughts which cross my mind as I read this expressive poem, Karen. I admire you for the way you have dealt with this situation. ~ Wishing you all the best in life // paul

Very strong and deeply defiant, if I used that word correctly. To stand up and face these horrific acts takes a certain will and strength. Bravo on this.
