PANDORA IS NO VIRUS
PANDORA BRINGS RECEIPTS
If my life matters
To no one but me
My life matters
So Be It
I will not submit to predation
Hatred
Bigotry
Human rights violations
Your torture will not change this
In me
LIFE IS A RIGHT
YOU WILL NOT TAKE THIS FROM ME
I HAVE A RIGHT TO LIFE WITHOUT RAPE
I DON’T CARE WHO THINKS DIFFERENT
My life is my own
I AM NOT YOUR SLAVE
“Stay behind and clean up the mess we make”
I AM NOT YOUR MAID
Instead of treating me like a human
Leadership treats me like a machine
Instead protecting democracy
Leadership protects predation
I DON’T HAVE TO COMPLY WITH IT
My rights don’t die
Because people don’t like my melanin
My rights don’t disapear
Because I’ve been targeted for rape
My rights are not invalidated
Because I have been trafficked
My life isn’t insignificant
Because predators don’t want me to be seen
IF YOU CHOSE TO TARGET ME
I HAVE THE RIGHT TO SELF-DEFENSE
IF YOU CHOOSE TO TOTURE ME
OR MY CHILDREN
I WILL DAMN SURE PROTECT
So Be It
