Every parental slap
more about the parent than the child
Every bully’s cruelty
you’re silently told is your fault
when you’re taught to defend
and they are not taught to stop
Every lover who said
one thing
and did another
so they could
do you
Every word you feared to say
every word you said
that brought you fear
Every action
stupidly done
every action
lazily left undone
Stupidity
Fear
Laziness
the cross-links of every mark
seen
and
unseen
carried on
and within
the body
within
the life
