They landed with a soft thud <br />They scratched <br />They pinched <br />They bit <br />They scooped <br />Proudly they carried back <br />A part of me in their sack. <br />As if it were not enough <br />They clicked <br />My peaks <br />My cleavages <br />My nudity did they send <br />To the earth’s inhabitants <br />They gibed <br />They winced <br />They scoffed <br />They grimaced <br />Never again would they compare <br />Their beloved to me they swear <br />I am barren <br />I am scarred <br />I am ugly <br />I am cleaved <br />For eons have I borne <br />The effulgent sun <br />Scorching my breast for thee <br />Churning it into moonlight <br />Stark into serenity.<br /><br />jyoti saxena<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-rape-of-the-moon-2/
