Sleep poem

 I get tired of knowing 

that I cannot stop them. 

I noticed that they think 

second degree rape 

is consensual 

when you were 

not awake to say no. 

Is that a-

awkward statement?

If I was consenting 

They would not

Have to break into my house 

While I’m asleep to touch me.

I forgot to ask you if I’m allowed to think for myself.

Don’t flatter yourself.

You will never have the right 

To stick your hand up my skirt

I’m not your puppet wife. 

You’re mother should have told you not to talk to strangers. 

But

Instead 

She raised you like a mad dog
