Only
A Poem

Only a boy
Only a joke
Only a girl
Only one word
Consent cannot be given
Without a voice
But clearly, he was too turned on
He had no choice
Only a boy
Only a girl
Just some fun
A little thrill
His body heavy like a coffin
Thrusting deeper and deeper
The trauma inevitable
The girl taken
The boy proud
Another girl calling him out
No joke
No fun
Just danger
A gun
This boy and his staged regret
Hypocrisy will never end.
