Antebellum 2

(Its the same woman as Antebellum 1; thank you very much)  
I knew  
Exactly where    
The hard wood    
Floors creaked    
And how to    
Get around    
“Them”    
Like a clever    
Fox    
On my way    
Up    
To see you    
With wet hair    
Easing up    
My nightgown    
Pretending    
To snag    
Chin    
With    
The road    
Up    
Ahead    
Crumbling    
All      
Around you    
     
And      
The threat    
Of the      
Whip    
     
Started me    
To organizing    
For      
The    
Rebellion    
     
(Papers signed)    
     
Legally    
And mentally    
Into    
Each other’s property.
