By M Lake-Hughes

I was standing proud

There

All alone in the crowd

Then I became aware

Of your vicious eyes

They attacked me

I felt them contemplating

Undressing me

Without my permission

Caressing and ravishing my body

Then they attacked me

Ripping, ragging, and tearing

Violently

Violently

Pulling at my clothing

I screamed for help

But not a soul heard

No-one paid attention to me

I fought

I resisted

In vain I fought

I even turned the other way

But, that

Didn’t make a difference

It did not help

You had your way!
