Mandatory Elimination
By: Angelica Peters
Divulgence
of a deep-seated skeleton.
Degradation
before the masses.
A simple search for solace.
Bamboozled
Forsaken
And laughed at to boot.
Oversaw my own disrobement.
Unprotected
A sucker
now I pay the consequence.
Embittered
towards one once revered.
Estranged;
nothing left to be said.
Can’t bare to look at you,
despise what I see.
Kick, scream, gouge at the eyes.
Blood spilled, penance given.
Resolute chin rising,
I put stiletto to ground.
Leave you lying on pavement,
better off on my own.
Proud.
Confident.
Woman.
