ive never read anything like this from u
this is tuff

o benevolent christ woman
kicked the baby out of little ebony's
14-yr-old stomach when she asked her to
because they both knew what birthright awaited
if the baby was damned to live in their end of town
with neighbors and landlords like theirs
a euthanization
that didn’t color itself selfish
til the rooms she'd been painting and preparing
for her own someday-baby was robbed
drained of its pretty red walls
replaced with a shriveled raisin of a womb
now she bleeds every month
at the wrist
and beneath pretty rope burns
lacing her neck
and adopts grown ass little boys
who hate her but have neglected babies of their own
who need a lover and protector
a fighter and a friend
a sacrifice
