Literature Text

I'm sorry you believe
that you deserve my flesh
bruised, cut, beaten and rotting-
my body belongs to me.

I'm sorry you believe
that you deserve my wailing
twisted insides, the pit in my stomach, my fire heart-
those feelings belong to me.

Stab me once, stab me twice-
I may bleed, my hands may sweat,
my heart may pound, but I am in control.
