Calvary Cinquain

Eight years of age,
content with love
and fathomless joy
.Her terrestrial life
seems innocent to her.

As she skips through
this familar hall,
she does not notice him
looming over
her pure, tiny child body

Yet he pins her
to be his prey,
caught in his pedophile
web of addiction--
to be devoured.

He fearlessly discovers
her newly blooming breasts,
then trails downwards,
memorizing folds of skin
and private areas of life

And she is now
erected to this shame,
pondering why
this boy touched her
as she is afraid to walk again
