The man in charge

Stops for no one. 

Never has

And never will. 

Not even before the 

Go Ahead. 

Not even after the 

Stop.

Not while 

The gun is in his hand. 

Not while 

The law is on his side. 

Even when they take 

A life. 

Or multiple lives. 

Or a piece of 

Your Life. 

A piece of you. 

We shouldn’t be 

Surprised, not really. 

That the law

Never. Changed.

Except for when 

They need a leash 

On us women, 

Of course. 

They gave us one 

Great thing,

The right to our bodies,

Just to take it back 

To cage it away 

And dangle it in 

Our faces.

For. Ever. 

When they take 

And take

From us. 

When they leave us 

To Deal 

With the aftermath. 

Alone. 

Without repercussions.

Just because 

He couldn’t. 

Keep it. 

In his pants. 

Don't Worry.

You can change what your baby 

Will look like,

So you aren't reminded of 

That man.

The man 

That took from you. 

Getting rid of his 

Hair and eye color 

Should help,

Shouldn't it?
