another one last week

He took her 

to the mountains

and he paid 

for lunch and dinner

like an incel

with a budget

she’d be foolish not to eat

when dessert arrived

he told her

he would pay her

if she fucked him

if she wouldn’t 

he would split the bill

and go about his way

she reflected on her choices

but she didn’t count too many

so the options were restricted

by the capital she lacked

plus he promised her a baby

and she craves a sense of safety

but the boys still gamble money

while she gambles for her life

And they still ignore the femicides

another one last week

not too far from where I’m writing this

I bet he had some beers

Like I had them, too

I had a lot

I’m having one right now

Thinking “this one’s for the feminists”

And I deserve a bow

For not killing anyone

except myself

along the years

I had many, many beers

I write more than most my peers

but the shit they write surpasses mine

I always fail at German

And my ways of handling rage

could raise some questions

nonetheless
