Poetry is a deep lake with a strong current, or at least, it can be. Why one set of words can move us so much is a mystery, or it is an art. There are so many wonderful poets who have achieved this divine feat and I have only savoured but a few. I aim to slowly but surely address this oversight.

I have chosen this poem because the subject matter is clearly relevant to the hateful side of our contemporary world. Despite the troubles forced upon us by the pandemic, women in particular have been made to suffer through an increase in domestic abuse, abuse at work, at university, out and about, anywhere and everywhere.

This phenomenon has to stop! Sexual abuse has to stop! We need to come together and stop it!
