Ask Her
14 years ago there was a 13yr old girl. She became heavily invested in anatomy books and began reading grisly material no 13yr old girl should have had any interest in.
She read these things not because she was actually interested in becoming a doctor, but because she needed to know where the major arteries on the human body were. She became very interested in knives.
Ask why that 13yr old girl felt the need to do this. Ask her what it was like standing over his bed with a knife. Ask her what went through her head when the gravity of what she was about to do hit her...

I WAS...
I was just a kid when he tore my crotchless lingerie
I was just a toddler when i felt it all,
the squeezing with no easing
The teasing with no resting.
I was 13 when he oozed it on me,
This man is a sialorrheal one
I did not feel it rather begged it,
He forcibly did it.
This monster opened my curtain at 13
He got me used, he is all i want now
If not him then not my agemates, bring his.
I am not young, this man rapes me.

Oppressed
Imagine
Being in whatever your favourite place is
Living in constant fear
That a bomb
May land on you
At any given moment
Night, or day
Day in, day out
Week in, week out
Whilst the entire infrastructure
Of where you live
Is gradually, and brutally
Eradicated
Little, or no food, or water
No medicines, for your son, or daughter
As the country you were born in
Becomes a wasteland
As clouds of oppression
Rains down on you daily
Where countries that could help you
Don't
As they have a vested...

celebrating International Woman's Day! A poem:
Hear me roar
As quietly as a lioness
With the same finesse
So fine
The empty shadows
That fall
On empty walls
Of long forgotten heroines
Obscured by those
That censored the books
That have dug in the hooks
Of control
Yet the lionesses
That labour on
As the sweet song
Of equality lingers
Poised, and poignant
Elegant, and civilised
Human, and humane
Controlled
By the will of some men
Again
And again, and again
Adore the roar
This is what we should all strive for

Slaughter
Israel
Led by its dictator
Benjamin Netanyahu
Commiting crimes against humanity
Israeli troops
Now slaughtering
Starving Palestinians
Around aid convoys
Whilst also destroying
The infra structure of Palestine
Netanyahu is a monster
And that back him
Like Biden, and Sunak
Are supporting a genocide
A slaughter of the innocent
Whilst Europe
Are still buying Russian oil
Transferred onto neutral ships

migrant workers
the pain is etched
on each face,
heavy loads being carried
under constant strain,
moving to gather crops
in the blistering sun,
weathered skin
under shaded hats,
bone, muscle and souls
all sore and tired,
moving back and forth
finishing the day's labor,
still overworked and underpaid
so a few rich can have more,
while the poor are nourished
by strong will and determination.

Shoot Out, At The Not O.K. Coral
I understand
That all the worlds leaders
Want to control
Or kill
Each other
Fine!
Just don't involve
The eight billion citizens
That inhabit this planet
Instead of spending
Billions, upon billions
On weapons of war
And destruction
How about saving
This beautiful planet
Instead of destroying it
Wtf! wtf! wtf!
Wtf! wtf! wtf!
Ad infinitum
How come the whole destiny
Of planet Earth
Is in the hands
Of such a bunch
Of mindless fuckers!
Who seem to have no concept
Of what is...

The rain and reign of terror!
The year ends on saddest notes
of crying, dying babies in Palestine
and obstructed efforts
to throw them a lifeline
They ought to have long halted this ethnic cleansing
of the indigenous inhabitants
Stop the cruel bombardment
of their poor apartments
I'm not just griping for nothing,
the scenario is too bloodied
and gripping for sure,
Doctors go wiping off blood
as babies are rushed
dripping with gore
to hospitals tripping
with casualties galore
All humane hearts with any humanity ...

Invisible Gypsy
Our silence is our safety
That's what my Dad would say
Don't tell them you're gypsy
That's how you end up dead
I'm Romani
I say it to an empty room
Swallowing my tears harshly
Old wounds reopened with precision
Invisible... That's all we are... Huh

Resist!
I raise my pudgy fist,
pounding on the bars of my crib.
The lie "to keep me safe",
a prisoner in this gilded cage.
Resist!
Freedom from the crib!
Down with the parentracy!
Toddlers unite!
It is time to strike,
throwing my cereal to the floor
That was fun as I do it again.
You should see the panic in your eyes
as my cheeks puff out and face turns red,
ready to cry to the world
the injustice of nappy time
pounding on the bars of my crib.

BATTLEFIELD
It's been this way for centuries
So we must trust no man
Learn to read your enemies
Or they'll kill you where you stand
Soldiers man your stations
This is what you've waited for
Remember all your training
As we go to war
Defending someone's life
is much bigger than a legacy
We don't need your distractions
or your homicidal tendencies
It seems to me you're neck deep
into one too many pleasantries
Gee it must be nice to be
above all of this peasantry
Hesitate reluctant with your kindness
and your...
