A little while away
someone is sleeping happily

Their tiny toes wrestle to find light

While those nasty thoughts
finally find peace, tonight,
between sentimental stories of
failed poets and men

Will you believe in love still,
more than my hands?
Would you believe me now,
if I had a story to tell
or a humble plea?

I felt the earth drop through my
stomach when you said you were
leaving me…

“The appropriation of BDSM imagery is problematic because while community members understand that it is important to be sensitive to the needs, boundaries, and rules of players in order for a scene to function fairly and enjoyably, mainstream porn is primarily about getting off as quickly as possible. Add to that a disgraceful lack of sexual education (both in safety and in pleasure) across the country, and a general belief perpetuated by the media that women are sexual objects to be consumed, and you have a rape culture that started by borrowing from BDSM’s imagery without reading its rules.” by
