By the Force of my Doom

A distress, woman-centric poem, by Tali, exclusively for Different Truths.

By the force of my doom
The outcast
 
The blood of disgrace
Is in menstruation.
 
And not upon
(A foreign) foreskin
In humility
 
And not as
A wife to bear it
In humility
 
For this
I give
No guarantee.
