With a deep sigh of guilt, he started up his car, the rickety old vehicle churning to life, headl...
“No way no how I am not going up there!” I said pointing at the stage where a middle aged woman was singing ‘You Don't Own Me’ by Lesley Gore and not well I might add.
“Come on Sare Bear we need a Baby Spice.” Hallie said.
“And you love singing.” said Tracy.

Outlawed from the beginning, perpetually hunted by the whims of men
Values only placed on them, not our contribution to the expansion of humanity’s fate
Your names never ours imbued you an unspoken right to use your rage, rape, misogyny as intimidation tools

“For you to kill me?” he responded, the edge of the blade hard against his Adam’s Apple.
Ciel leaned in gently lifting Kraai’s head up, every muscle tensing in her arm.
“I am guessing you have never taken a life before”, he nearly spat through gritted teeth.
Ciel sliced his neck and blood poured immediately, s...
