two monsters of the same breed

Linds M. Crate

i remember
once
i was vulnerable
and depressed
some guy i barely knew
at college
said he’d take a walk with me
he took me to his room
for netflix and chill
when i strained to watch the movie
i had no interest in
he forced me to touch his dick,
and i recoiled;
he seemed mad until i told him about you
didn’t seem to realize
you were both the same breed of monster
cut from the same cloth of desire
shorn from human decency
over indulgent in personal want
thinking that want and desire made it perfectly
acceptable to take what was needed—
i wasn’t the same girl then
as i was now
definitely different than the little girl
you forced to kiss you
who you tried to rape all those years ago
frightened and scared
in both situations i froze like a deer
caught in headlights
now i would give you a piece of my mind so strong
you’d choke.
