There is no difference
between being raped
and being pushed down
a flight of stairs except
that the wounds bleed
on the inside.
There is no difference
between being raped
and being run over by
a truck except that
afterward men ask if
you enjoyed it.
There is no difference
between being raped
and going head first
through a windshield
except that afterward
you are afraid not of cars
but half the human race.
