you can't turn a hoe into a house wife. - Ludacris
i saw the word 'rehoebilitation' on twitter. i think it was DeRay Davis. you know how comedians are always talking smack on twitter. But there we have it. The sources have been cited. Don't sue.
That transformation, when a woman realizes her worth and stops doing it with random men, is it possible?
There were jokes about it, like it'll take about five years for a bad reputation to wear off, some people think it's not truly possible unless there's some form of religious intervention, or first there has to be some kind of mental breakdown...
your thoughts on the topic?
and is it possible for one to really be able to wipe their slate clean?
i wrote a piece that kind of relates.
Enjoy.
INTERNAL PROTEST
as she lays on the metaphorical bed she made,
she can’t help but feel like she could have spread.
It.
Better.
now she lays everyday,
wishing she could roll over and die
on the brink of depression, she cries.
she feels her sprit breaking within her,
drenched.
Drowning.
in her own tears…
this past couple of years, have been a blur
drunken slurs
battle scars
frequenting bars
fast cars
she feels her spirit breaking within her
the countless yeses instead of no’s
retarded actions, she didn’t know better
her past self shouldn’t have let her take another sip
on some chug, chug, chug tip
for a temporary high
and a bitch of a hangover
to her going undercover…
she feels her spirit breaking within her
the pieces pierce and scrape her insides
burnt,
bruised,
broked,
beaten,
battered
she muffles her wails to listen to her soul
she is hurting too
her vessel,
her home,
defiled,
defaced,
discarded
and now,
widely being discussed…
by all the men who call her whore
the ones who held her tight and spent the night
the ones who grabbed her hips and kissed her lips
the ones who never called and never stalled…
to leave in the morning
her soul is in mourning
she feels her spirit breaking within her
silent cries, internal protests…
they don’t really know me
what I’m about, who I want to be…
Blah blah blah
Fish cakes
Alas a fish cake.
Yet more fish cakes
Guess what ... yeah ... fish cakes.
The end of the fish cakes
