TW // sexual violence
poem by Joshua Brown
Little child in the dark
Light through door ajar
Here put this in your hand
Empty face on lined couch
Boy froze in time and space
Boy? Or was it girl and man?
Thirty years old or fifteen?
The child was three or four
The erect penis burned
A tower to hell burned
Light through the door ajar.
