I've buried myself in the sand.
Down in the deep I can't handle the pressure
but I'm unworthy of sunlight here on land.

I'm up here in the sunlight ducking behind coral when eels drop by.
I'm not down in the abyss, under worlds of pressure
and living and losing lives numerous times within my own time.
Why does it feel so dark?

Letter to the Son of Sorrow #1

"I'm far too respectful to treat a woman like that."
.
So you'll refuse to consensually hit a girl.
But raping her is fine.
.
Maybe in the fucked up world that you think you own that makes sense.
Here in the real world it doesn't.
.
You probably thought you owned me.
You thought you owned everyone.
You had the worst of God complexes.
You're a criminal.
.
But what am I supposed to do?
I don't have evidence.
.
I dressed up that day.
You didn't have a gun to my head.
.
I didn't sing hymns.
I thought about him.
I thought about them both
while you had your hands on the back of my head.
.
I thought about how this was nauseating but I had told myself to think of England.
I thought about how being shoved face first into a crotch more halfassedly groomed than your face was horrible.
I thought about how horrible sex must be if this is sex.
I thought about how badly I wanted to sink my teeth into your skin but I feared what you'd do.
.
I still can't fuck despite being with someone who, without knowing it, helped me through what you did.
Someone who respects me.
.
Respects me enough to hit me when I ask.
Respects me enough to stop when I ask.
Respects me enough to surrender much-needed control to me.
Respects me enough to listen to me talk about what you did and console me despite having suffered worse.
.
And it's a shame that I can't fuck this person, because the sexiest thing is respect.
and you were just a shameful, pitiful excuse for a being.
.
You aren't human.
You're just a slimy changeling.

"I'll call you Dolores, now."
"Dolores?" She sounded as blank as her gaze. The upward lilt indicating it was a question was nearly imperceptible.
"Yes," Josef said, admiring his handiwork, turning her burnt hands over in his own still pristine hands. "My Lolita."
The phrase was ringing a bell but she was so wretchedly disoriented.

The Specter of Heterosexism Lingers
Sep. 22nd, 2009 | 05:15 pm
Dear Mr. Hedo:
Thank you for contacting my office regarding a proposal to amend the Constitution for the purpose of defining marriage as a union between a man and a woman. I appreciate hearing your comments on this important matter.
In 1996, the Congress passed and the President signed into law the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA). I supported the passage of this legislation. This law has two important facets. First, the law defines marriage for the purpose of the Federal government as a union between one man and one woman. Second, it provides that no state or local jurisdiction may be forced to recognize a legal union created in another state or jurisdiction, if the definition of that union is contradictory to their own.
The legalization of same sex marriage in states such as Connecticut, Iowa, and Massachusetts has led many citizens to believe it is necessary to amend the United States Constitution in order to protect traditional marriage. Although I support traditional marriage as defined in DOMA, and although I appreciate the goal of the proposed amendment, I do not believe it is necessary to amend the Constitution at this time.
I believe this is an issue most appropriately addressed at the state level, and most states are working hard to protect marriage. Indeed, nearly every state has enacted statutory or constitutional protection for traditional marriage. Furthermore, DOMA ensures those states will not be forced to recognize unions created in the handful of states with legalized same-sex marriage. Therefore, I believe it is premature to amend our founding document at this time.
Thank you for contacting my office regarding proposals to amend the Constitution to protect traditional marriage. Rest assured I will keep your thoughts on this issue in mind if the Senate considers this issue or any related issue. Should you have any further questions, please contact my office or visit my website at www.specter.senate.gov.
Sincerely,
Arlen Specter
Senator Specter,
You are clearly missing the point. I did not send that message to you urging that you continue to uphold DOMA. I sent that message urging that you realize what you are doing is foolish, and that you do what is in your power to help repeal the Defense of Marriage Act, that you should never have helped pass.
