The Rapist Poem by Anthony Goodall

He searches all night
With eye’s so bright
Under the cover of moonlight
With time on his side
He waits and hides
Bursting to commit his horrible crime

When the moment is right
He jumps out in a fright
And drags her away from the light
He tears of her clothes
But stay’s composed
Even after she breaks his nose

He leaves her beaten
With bloodied cloths
And disappears before the sun arose.
His time was so short
Before he was caught
Then they brought him before the high court.
The jurry made their decision
His sentence was life in prison
For his crime of sadism.

Manny years have passed since that night
Under the moonlight
And his eyes aren’t so bright
Now he’s doing life
And now he knows
What it’s like
To get raped all night.
