Rape Culture

Rapist!

He is a rapist…

Like the boys who force their hands into cookie jars

Even after they are told NO

They take the NO and turn it into ON

Now it’s ON

GET. HIM. OFF. ME.

His strong legs are pressing onto her legs

To keep her thighs locked in a wide open position

GET. HIM. OFF. ME.

Her scream is wrenched low

As his body presses against hers

Her no’s are moans of pain

no, No, NO.

Maybe he can’t hear her

Maybe he doesn’t want to hear her

Stop!

GET. HIM. OFF. ME.

And when he’s done

He’s not the thief waiting in a dark alley

With a mask and a gun

He’s not the Fuckboy

Wearing his pants low and blasting rap music

He’s somebody’s brother

A father to a daughter

A gentleman, who has a way

With his words

Charming, Charismatic and cunning.

And she is not

The girl with tasteless tattoos,

Dressed in crop tops and bum shorts

No.

She doesn’t even occasionally smoke weed

Before he thieved her innocence

She was actually a virgin

Now she’s just another girl

With a shattered hymen

Long after the incident

She still takes long showers

Trying to figure out how to

Wash him off her skin

Pray. They say.

Where was Jesus

In her moment of crucifixion?

Mamma always begged

‘Watch out for the badboys’

But what about

The boys who can never take NO for an answer?

Boys trapped in a man’s body

With their childish minds

Encouraging their false sense of entitlement

To access a woman’s body.

Rapist!

He is a rapist

Quit the stereotypes and

DEAL WITH RAPE CULTURE!
