My skin swaddled me in sinful silence
while your chains choked away any true choice.
You opposed and oppressed my opinions,
then violated and vetoed my voice.
My words judged abusive and abysmal,
unless meek and mutilated like yours.
Cultural cancellation controlled me;
silenced by an echo chamber of censors.
Whispers from the Fire: More Poems that Burn with Truth…
Coming Out Call-Out
probably when I became menstrual
Adrenochrome
royalty wandered the dark swamps
Whispers from the Scars: More Poems of Survival and Strength…
Rescued Me
fear of abusive men soon decreased
In His Embrace, I Slowly Died
where your love left me exiled
Mental Agony
my body stood naked and exposed
Whispers of Emotion: More Lyric Poems to Feel…
Tears Bled
rested my tired head on stones of hate
Dreamed He Would Keep Me Safe
while held within his firm embrace
Heterovert
your slur—my ceaseless derogation
