It’s weird how processing works.
It took 6 months for me.
Titus Andronicus woke me up.
The violent rape.
Mine wasn’t violent.
Mine wasn’t by strangers.
Mine didn’t leave me unable to speak,
Mine didn’t inspire action.
Mine was brushed off.
It was a punchline.
I guess the real punchline is that I’m still processing it.
