The Indignant Poetess

My Peace

I bathe myself in a pool of blood,

seeking shelter from those who dare destroy my peace.

 

Calluses all over my hands,

But there\'s nothing I can\'t fix,

In the same way it is believed the hair on my head is my own. 

 

I’m just a mere old lady,

With the appetite of five men,

the entitlement of a criminal with nothing to lose,

and the everlasting rage the devil would recognize from miles away.

Leave me in peace as I bathe in this pool of blood.
