My Mouth is Not Your Slave

It will not make
confessions

just to avoid
execution

Jessica
Doty Whitaker

in her story
demonstrates

...we have a choice
die free under
oppression

like a proud
First Peoples

or attempt
to survive

the raping
of my mouth

with con-artists
taking it as slave

It’s called being
a hostage

or, if you prefer...
a martyr

There are plenty
of bullets left

for free thinkers
