Rape Fists clenched. Nails digging in the palm of trembling hands…. Biting lips of grayish shade… Walking pained and unsteady steps… The body bruised, black, blue and bleeding… Every move an agonizing feat… A woman has been raped. Struggling to rise from the filth… The stench surrounding and enveloping her… Swaying between disbelief and unconsciousness… Clutching the shredded remnants of clothing… Half naked yet feeling embraced by a realm of incredulity… This is not her, it is someone else, she is home safe… A woman has been raped. Statements taken, lights flashing…. Asked probing questions of how, when, why… Dragged through the moments of hideous recollections… She is raped once more…

I am barely scratching the surface. More to follow.
