A Different Rape

by S. Pelham Flood

The aroma of piss
pours into my cocaine-
plastered nostrils

The cold, cracked concrete
floor of the Boystown alley
scathes my flesh

Their virility forces
me into v-shaped chalice
position

Each strain’s blade
rips into me—countless
rounds apiece

My eyes sear as the virus
engulfs me like fever.

If I can feel it when I read it; I mean really get a sense of the emotions and physical actions going on, I certainly like it. I think it's sharp, no filler.
