Vapor to Solid

With outrage, she said, "May the body of the man
                                 who uses his hand
                     to strike a woman
                                 be paralyzed.

                 May the weaklings be broken
                                 by women outspoken
                     by other men of token
                                 and ostracized.
        
                May their blood be fuel
                                 to continue the duel
                     to feed them gruel
                                 and no compromise.

               May mercy overlook them
                                 and vengence overtake them
                      by waves of violence
                                 that brought their insolence."

When she stopped boiling, and only simmered, she said,

              "He will never have power
                                 only power to cower
                        through a deadly shower
                                 and false confidence.

                He may strike and break
                                 and give then take
                       but his honor's at stake
                                 replaced with pestilence."

When she fully cooled, she said,
                "May God guide him
                                forgive him
                       and let him see the truth before him
                                 that a woman must be honored."


When her love settled in, she said,
              
                        "I wish he never left."
