Bloodied, Wounded, Weaponized

poem by: Cairo Carter
Written on Mar 08, 2018

Bloodied, wounded, weaponized
That which was only a brief span
Vacant and giving, up for the taking
Released, she was, unto man.
Harnessed, no, handcuffed and shamed
Holed and hollow or hallowed and whole
To her it is all the same.
Suits or suitors, Thatchers and hatchets
A choice to sink or soar
Bloodied, wounded, weaponized
Her, the heiress to war.
