Even if negative comments have been buried by newer, positive ones, I remember seeing some asking why there are these hums and clicking noises. In the slam poetry/spoken word scene, they are preferred, respectful alternatives to clapping in the middle of the performance as they are quieter and less distracting to the speaker. I just wanted to share some perspective. Hope everyone’s having a good day regardless of what they think of the contents of the poem.

Baaahahahahaha… contrived nonsense from fools feigning anger to hide their insanity.

You guys are really ignorant sa survivors have “small “triggers sometimes just like soldiers WHY ? BECAUSE SHE KNEW THE PERSON WHO TRAUMATIZED HER

not enough likes

I cry every time. My first boyfriend raped me....i never told anyone. When I broke up with him, he threatened to send pictures to my parents. I don't know if he ever tried, I had my parents block his number from all of our phones. But what hurt the most was when relatives would bring him up and say what a nice young man he was and say what a shame it was I broke his heart. "Bad men will compliment your nana on her lemon squares" that line really hit me. I wish I had been brave enough to put him away or just to tell someone. I don't think he even knows what he did to me...because I didn't name it for a long time. He probably believed all the bullshit he told me like "guys can't help it" "we're biologically designed to sow our seeds" "this is normal in a relationship". I just wish someone had told me sooner....its not always a man in a parking garage or that creepy uncle at family gatherings....sometimes its someone you think you love. Its not always in a dark alleyway or a back room ..... sometimes its with the door open, lights on, and his parents right upstairs. And I wish someone would have told me that sometimes the scream gets stuck in your throat behind the tears and all you can manage is to sob out a "stop". I wish someone could have told me how paralyzing fear can be. Sometimes i half convince myself it never happened, that im making it all up, but then I remember how I grabbed my purse and ran out of his house crying...I remember how I cut myself for the first time that night and I run my fingers over the scars to prove to myself it was real. Then I find my other scars and remind myself that that trauma was real too. My scars are the loophole to the gaslighting I grew up with....as much as my brain is now hardwired not to trust my own memories, my scars are permanent reminders that its not all in my head.

I find it sad how we’re all aware if this since we were brought into this world. From the moment we cold think we were forced to be aware of our blackness and the difficulties that would bring. And now knowing as much as we can yet not enough, as she said, we may be marching and fighting for equality for all eternity since racism and antiblackness are ingrained so deeply into the world overtly, systematically, and even internally and our efforts to stop this ever since race was first invented to oppress us now it sometimes feels like too much and my generation and other young people have to be next in this cycle of generational trauma that a lot are gullible enough to think is over. It’s kinda scary to be aware of this. This sounds like 🦝 crap but yall know what I’m saying it’s gonna be tough.

For real

“I don’t even know my own triggers” so relatable

9 years later and its still relevant and i still come back to watch it

Been watching this a few times a year for almost a decade. Jesus

This is the one poem I come back to every year since I’ve been like 12. 2 stalkers since then.. hits different now

❤❤❤❤

I like seeing hot girls cum

Damn this shit was brutal to listen to i got bored almost immediately

Cringe

I wish there was more i could do but i hope everyone here who relates to this finds peace. And i wish the best of luck to you all!

😪👏❤️🎤

Woman means human ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

With SPIT, SPIT, SPIT!

I feel bad for whoever marries them.

it was an, ok, poem. worn out topic, and definitely not the one to "end all rape poems" (which is a terrible name) You gotta love this attitude of "men rape" when men are statistically (globally) more likely to be raped or molested at some point in their lives men are less likely to speak up, all of which is BECAUSE women treat men saying "im hurt too" as somehoe taking from them. if i break my arm, and my brother breaks his, i dont get to be angry at him for that, its childish, and it's the real issue.

This reminds me of an article about this 17 year old in scotland and he raped a 13 year old continuously btw and all he got was community service and be put under a sexual predator for only three years. This was because he is under 25 and it's disgusting because it's basically saying your first rape is fine. This was apparently at a park which just shows that if you're a girl you truly aren't safe anywhere. I love this poem it gave me the chills. It's so powerful.

as a victim myself. this shit was ass

Also mid… they created Covid

mid

cant find her anywhere else no more videos anyone know what happened to her

FOR REAL.

The way these two were in sync in the symbolic context of this speech. From the emotional responses coming from the one with the stolen voice but then switching mics returning to the voice of the individuals intersections. It’s almost as if representing finding their voice in a crowd one being ridden with misogyny and the other with micro aggressions. This was beautiful.

Shits deep! Wow

This is the most disgraceful exhibition of white middle class women's entitlement that I have seen yet.

To be honest she shouldn’t have a gun…or a knife. Or a sharpened pencil.

Ketchup lips lol wtf

This girl's got some real spit arms, and it makes me hard at the thought my forearms would be longer than hers.

If we’re gonna do 1000 poems about rape we may as well do them about murder too like wtf… bitches just craving attention and wanting to make all men look bad. Yes you dumb little arrogant women rape happens to us ALL. No matter what gender creed religion or sexual orientation. Get that through your thick fucking skulls your phones are fused to.

…all i asked for was a sandwich

hope nobody minds me venting on here this poem hits close to home i remember to this day when i was groomed on a game i like now im afraid of going to stores or passing by houses cause i always feel unease and tremble around guys as well cause i fear they are like the man who tricked me

Lol

As soon she said “ triggered warnings” i laughed 😂😂😂😂

“Guys I just found out rape isn’t ok, i can’t believe after all this time I’ve been thinking rape is ok“ - no convicted rapist ever

Baaaahahahahaha... this is hysterical. I wish these 4 were available for hire. I would pay them to come to my next party and recite this poem for comedic relief.

Still my favorite after 7 years

oh wow i love this poem so much, it is so damn powerful
