Scarlet Red
Do not ask me what I was wearing
My denim shorts were not an invitation
Do not ask me what I was wearing
My floral blouse did not have "YES" written on it
Do not ask me what I was weaing
My makeup was not significant
Do not ask me what I was wearing
Would it have made a difference if I had worn a dress?
if I had worn heels?
if I had worn scarlet red lipstick?
Why does it matter what I was wearing?
Do not ask me what I was wearing
My clothes did not rape me
My shoes did not rape me
My makeup did not rape me
Do not ask me what I was wearing
HE raped me
