The walk of shame!!

The walk of shame!!

A Poem by Nalini Kukreti

You've mocked her,you've knocked her
Slammed her, shamed her
Made her feel ashamed, of her identity
You've brutally murdered an entity..
You've questioned her, doubted her
Tamed her, named her
Craved her, still denied her
Abused her, disgusted her..
You've been hers, yet demeaned her
Pushed her, looked down upon her..
You've been a part of her
Yet rejected her
Ejected her, molested her..
Never stood for her, constantly lied to her,
Never been there for her, raped her
Fooled her, forced her
Buffooned her…
You've killed her, failed her
Maintained a constant check on her
Made her feel no better
Yet you be smiling
With no sign of grief
And she be there ready
To silently walk “the March of ignominy”…….

And one more thing. your emphasis of her, makes the reader sympathize with the victim. the "her" echoes throughout the poem. nice technique

Wow! thats a very thoughtful piece. Very down to earth. a very sensitive topic, and I am glad you tackled it. I believe that's what writing is about: speaking for those without a voice. keep up the good work.
