"That Poem Makes Me Feel Like I've Been Abused."

"That Poem Makes Me Feel Like I've Been Abused.":

I read this poem at an event over the summer. Weeks later, a man came up to me and said that the female friend he was at the event with turned to him and said “that poem makes me realize I’ve been abused.” He pondered for a moment, then carefully responded, “that poem makes me feel like I’ve been an abuser.” He then told me that he would change.

For all the rage in my heart, I have to believe I am putting out double the good than the anger. The poem was published in Muzzle Mag yesterday. Here.
