Let’s workshop this poem that raises unsettling questions about the relationship dynamics between a girl and a mysterious figure who is presumably her mom’s boyfriend.
A little girl is being raped! How could that ever be in poetry. Poetry must have decency. Poetry is not here to show a mirror to who we are. It is to make us feel SAFE. And yet here this scum goes an not only put a picture up a vagina no older than five, but he goes one step further: he makes the rapist "Malik" and so obviously a black man. NAZI ALERT NAZI ALERT. Stop terrorizing black bodies!!!!
