you can agree

you can agree

that boys will be boys

you can agree

that drunk girls sometimes get too drunk

and sometimes bad things happen

and it's too bad

for the boy

and it's too bad

for the girl

we've agreed on that for all of my lifetime

sometimes girls deserve it

sometimes faggots want it

i've heard it all

abuse is abuse is abuse

and when the world wakes up to that

maybe

maybe then

we'll regain our humanity

 it's a bit alarming that when i tell people i do work for 'the ministry' they just nod and smile. because 'ok wendy, that sounds good'. is it the ministry of good and evil? the ministry of choice and no choice? the ministry of insanity or just getting through the day? mostly they say 'oh, good for you'.
