The Taking of Innocence

it takes a lot to make me angry, but every now & then, I get very angry indeed ...

The Taking of Innocence

Beneath that now
famous
cheesecloth dress
Their
scattered DNA
suggests
She tried so very
hard
to cross her legs
and
hold her breath ..
Not having
once ever dreamt
of being
forced to kiss
through clenched
fists and
teeth like that before ..

Neville this is a skilful write. You capture the violation felt when such a sickening act is forced on another. Never an easy thing to write about. You do a good service, highlighting such an horrible act on another human being

this was just a little too close to home to remain wholly objective from a clinical point of view .. hence my formal request to be allowed some special dispensation ........................ poetic license was not dispensed with however and I dont mind admitting, I still feel both personally violated and angry ......................................................................

Note to self .... Don't make Neville angry ..... I agree with what Gwen said above and the structure definitely added to the drama I felt as I read it.
