You are not blind
and women are not
written in Braille.
You do not have
to touch her in order
to know her.
What you must learn,
is how to read more carefully,
the words on her pages,
so that you may
earn the right
to turn the pages.

The only message I have for this poem is that sexual assault or harassment are never okay and everyone needs to be aware of that.
