I asked for it

Would you hurt me

If I asked you to?

Would you strip away my dignity

And undress me with your eyes,

Let me tremble beneath

Your hungry gaze

Even as I covered over

My naked body with my hands

And sank to the cold

Bathroom floor

Until the tears came

And I sobbed,

Victimized.

But I asked for it, right?

So, you’re off the hook.
