You would taste differently <br />If you didn't swallow <br />Every single thing <br />You own, or don't own <br />Thief, I've witnessed <br />Your obvious deceptions <br />How you slide past barriers <br />And into the most intimate- <br />Parts of the most beautiful, <br />Innocent little ladies <br />Your hands would feel softer <br />If you didn't clasp <br />Everything with such vengeance <br />Such vigour, such intensity <br />Your suitors tread slowly <br />When you have fire in your eyes <br />Pick a role, pick a title <br />It's what the world demands <br />Not many will see the truth <br />In your words, from your lips <br />How could they believe it when <br />You are the vulnerable victim <br />Inside the prevailing predator<br /><br />Stefanie Fontker<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/vulnerable-predator/
