“Get offa me all this blood, bones shattered like soft ice-cream cones. I cdnt have people lookin at me pregnant. I cdnt have my friends see this dyin danglin tween my legs. & I didn’t say a thing, not a sign or a fast scream to get all those eyes offa me. Get them steel rods outta me, this hurts! This hurts me! And nobody came, cuz nobody knew once I was pregnant & shamed of myself.”
