He is faceless,
Dark, shameless,
Walking anywhere,
Everywhere,
Touching,
And groping,
Here there,
Adding to my discomfiture,
He can overtake,
Cow me down and dominate,
Hit me
And beat me,
Force himself on me,
The demon's shadow he
Is, can brutalise me in a bus,
Causing bruises and cuts,
Can molest me in a crowd,
Can fondle me without my consent,when no one is around,
Can throw me out in the cold bare bodied,
Shivering, bleeding and naked...
