Stigma
Hidden behind toothy, nervous smiles and iron pressed work pants
Line your pretty lips and keep them sealed
Results in uninformed exchange of words with the woman lathering her breasts in the public bathroom sink
Ignore him and take extra steps to avoid the man talking to no one in the street
Walk corralled in this line becuase they said "he's crazy"
I rip my mouth open and ignor the glaring eyes when I shake your hand and ask for your name
