Intervention

Its coming
Abuse by your black partner
The grog the drugs the glue

He will not know what he does

When he rapes your body
And
Blackens your face a shade darker than your skin

A new day dawns
He loves you again

Your sweet scent
Turns his mind to love
You are pregnant again

You stay

A family burns for you despite it all

The beatings and savagery
The verbalising
Threats and deprivation

You love your man
He is misunderstood

He loves you to death

Which is coming soon?
