Unwanted deluge

I don't want to start my day
By processing bitterness, 
Feeling dirty, unclean, and violated

But in my mind,
He is there with me, 
Unbidden,
Grinning that simpering grin

Maybe he isn't in reality

Maybe he never thinks about it

But then, in my mind 
I am looking at me 
Through his eyes 
All over time

A used thing
A pitiable thing
A violated thing 
A thing which has no agency
A thing taken advantage of
A thing trampled
A thing that you can do anything with 
A thing crowed upon

A thing to be caged
A thing to posess
