Rapes in the city

Tue, 09/16/2014 - 14:52 -- Sasha V

city boys are a different type of breed

so i was told

but any boy can be a different type of breed

so i have seen

you look scared

he said

after he had just forcibly grabbed my arms

you look scared

he said

after he gripped my waist

whispered in my ear

he asked

are you a virgin

uncomfortable i was

paranoid i was

sober yes i was

but smart i was too

aware, alert and as slick as he

nevertheless, outbeat by his power and strength

if he truly wanted to

i’d be just another rape in the city
