Spit !


She won’t be shamed
And shan’t be blamed
And can’t stop screaming foul
Spit and rave.
Not contained.
In walls and hidden worlds
Lewd—uncharacteristic ‘shape’
Maal, Item, Figure,
Reduced, in words and ways.
In your movies, she is sickly contortion
Of silly rain dances
And shaking waists.
And on your streets
cooed and teased
In full length jeans,
Still unsafe.
