Perspective

I

I'd never experimented sexually.
One boy was lonely and far from home,
He slept in my bed clothed.
We did nothing.

The next day jeers from the lads
Assuming I'd broken that sweet boy
With my womanly touch.

Some called me slut,
A little.

II

A few weeks later,
I took a man from a club
To my bed. I gave him oral.
We did nothing more.

The next day jeers from the lads
Assuming I'd broken that sweet man
With my womanly touch.

Some called me slut,
A lot.

III

I have no memory until
He was on top of me.
I was powerless to
His nightmare shadow.

The next day jeers from the lads
When I cried rape:
'Did you enjoy it?'

Surely, she must have led that man
With her womanly touch.
