Hands Off

Hands Off

A Poem by therisa
"

How some men don't understand, "no".

"
My mind drifts
To that spot
Of safety.

Which
You can't touch me
With your caress
Of terror.

As I try
To ignore
Your unwanted advances
Towards me.

Smelling
Your beery breath
With every word spoken.

Triggering
My need to vomit
From the smell.

Hoping
You'll get the message
And left me
Alone.

Without being rude
Or worse
To you.

But
Your Neanderthal mind
Can't grasp
The obvious.

As I "accidentally"
Spill my drink
On you
Before leaving.
