Bullies

Three o’ clock
Once again
Around the corner,
They came
She saw
She ran
But alas!
They caught her

Down she was knocked
Bam, boom!
A kick and a bruise
She tasted blood
She scurried to her feet but
Boom, she fell
Knocked down again

“Haha! Look at her!”
They laughed out loud
She bit her lip
She wouldn’t give in
She couldn’t give in
Oh, but she did

Like satisfied wolves
After the kill
They sauntered away
Filled with thrill

Exhausted and beaten
The girl lay there
Once again
Three o’ five.

it appears to me that the girl was gang-raped.
bad choice of events, if that was what you intended. why? its too comic with the whole bam boom business.
appreciate your attempt to mix in a bit of lightness but its not exactly a good thing to mix it up with something like rape.
