one small crack

You were thrashed
hung up on the wall and bashed
thrown on the ground and smashed
tied up to the pillar, lashed
with a rope so thin
that it cut deep into your skin
And then there arose a crack
in your body and you began to look like an old hag
but my dear
wipe those tears
that are smeared
and clear
your thoughts and think calmly
you still treat people warmly
so what if they see your crack
the right ones will wag
their tails and be drawn to you
cause they know the things you had to do
to stand up to all those beatings
to stand up against those hate that they have been feeding
your small crack means that you’re put to the test
and received a slugfest
and didn’t fall apart
