Conjugal Rape
www.facebook.com/WRRPoetry [Conjugal Rape]
Get down to the bed
And let me make you red
After all I’ve paid the dowry
It’s time to pay yours

Off with your clothes
And out with the light
I will make love with you tonight
It’s my given right

Shut your mouth
Menstruation or not
I have the right
I can use it anyhow

Save me mother!
Save me father!
Why did you give me to this man?
Is this making love or rape?
