UNPLUGGED VIRGIN


earching now, I find it strange that life with you was so mundane. It was full of light and action, but you never seemed to look at me, but rather you eyes flitted and flapped like the wings of a dying bee.

I am sure there were times that I cared that you stared, but right now my troubles are far more real. I see that I is my time to be crushed by the wheel…

Of time
Of lust
Of injustice
Of the sickening human race

I find myself wondering why I choose this colour. The purple velour interior of my cell seems not to adequately portray this living hell.

I see you grinning on the face of a Norwegian man. I see you lusting in the eyes of a diplomat from Japan.

And I breathe, compose and bend over – to switch off the lamp. I unplug the soul from my mind and step down to start my life as a sex slave with my very first time.
