The Rapist! (Poem)

By Stanley Collymore

You boastfully claim you not only love sex and consequently in

the bargain of doing so as the definitely skilled connoisseur

that you openly say you are in expertly recognizing and

when disposed to always befittingly addressing the sexual

requirements of those who’ve been rather privileged to

have themselves skilfully serviced by you, you additionally

state in the most self-centred way that you can modestly

manage to do that this state of affairs fully explains,

or self-evidently should do, why it is that you’re

not only evidently and immensely empathetic

towards sex but likewise in these expressed

conditions are thoroughly addicted to it.

And therefore and quite understandably, as you additionally

explain in your rather irrational and ridiculous manner,

accounts for why you’re obliged to habitually have

sex, irrespective of whether those persons whom

you’ve specifically selected for your routine

occurrences of sexual manipulation and your individual

glorification end up either meekly or even willingly

eager and excitedly complying with your carnal

demands of them as choice-less pawns in the

matter, and then noticeably manipulatively

swayed, in the interim, by you that what

they’re carnally ensuring isn’t simply

typical procedure, but furthermore

is rightfully and compatibly for

them an intensely innate and

compelling desire which is

both subconsciously and

naturally being sprung

from inside of them.

So driven by such irresistible cravings and indomitable

circumstances then, the only realistic, sensible and

rational response expected from them is not to

pointlessly resist this enthralling and clearly

inevitable outcome, but instead to firmly

and welcomingly, instantly, spiritedly,

gratefully both go along with and completely embrace

this arbitrary scenario that you always put to your

star-crossed and helpless victims and therefore

anticipatorily expect to superciliously from

your obviously assumed position of total

command and absolute influence over

them casually and always easily get

away without any punishments at

all, with whatever it is that you

persistently and evilly doing.

An absolute and uncompromising hubris on your part that

countenances no understanding whatsoever of the orally

expressed, emotionally demonstrated or the naturally

connected with both of these and consequently the

decidedly unflattering opinions regarding what

you, as these victim’s undisputed rapist, are

coercively and unconscionably doing to them. Incidences

that quite evidently don’t matter in the slightest to you,

or would they even when one factors into the other

sexual abuses’ equation what you are similarly

desirous of perpetrating when indulging in

your accustomed illegal and discernibly

appalling sexually abusive behaviour.

For in your noticeably twisted, utterly sickening and totally

egotistic calculation of this solely untenable and outright

demeaning situation that you’re always so desirous of

imposing on others, and where the perverse evil of

your hectic opportunism enmeshed supportively

with the analysed deduction of your intensely

believed in and just as inflexibly practised

aberrant sexual actions are, in essence, as much an integral

part of your own sexual exploitations as the habitually

stipulated, diligently devised, established planning

and the subsequent utilization of these numerous

things that in turn, and matching these several

other specified and sexual forms of human

violations, do unambiguously, as a direct

consequence of all this, unforgettably,

irrefutably and unforgivably in such

circumstances, definitely sets you

totally apart from conventional

humans to struggle endlessly

as what you clearly are and

will always be, a highly

revolting and a most

uncharitable rapist!

Author’s Remarks:

To start with, and in the process making it abundantly and unequivocally clear, this is no jumping onto any current or other bandwagon on my part regarding the issues of rape, sexual abuse and violence, which I’ve written about in this article and the attendant poem also entitled The Rapist.

And it has nothing at all to do with either insensitivity or the lack of a caring and empathetic attitude by me. Rather the contrary I would say. And to be perfectly honest with you my reason for purposefully taking this stance that jumping on bandwagons, and what’s more gratuitously so, is totally alien to my character and something that I am adamantly, totally unapologetically and antipathetic towards.

For I utterly detest self-righteous, self-serving, bogus sanctimoniously and contrived grief and abhorrence prats of both genders, regardless of who they are, what they do for a living or have no such thing, or what power and influence they have over others, a situation that I never submit to and especially if it’s a coercive or manipulative one.

So I’ll be blunt! I consider rape and sexual abuse to be wrong and this irrespective and in line with whoever the perpetrators or the victims are.

Yes, it’s a state of affairs that community-wise as well as globally has been around for millennia, but even so as mankind supposedly becomes better well-informed and more “civilized” and with the evils of rape and sexual abuse increasingly recognized and accepted as such it can only be hoped that these acts will be determinedly challenged, prosecuted - regardless of the social position of the perpetrators – and the REAL, as apart from the self-advertising and self-serving victims, more fully empathized with, given all the help they need and appropriately compensated.
