Patriarchal tools

 She was bleeding, she checked herself, before thinking better of it. The room was white, full walls, with a low frame, metal as she remembered. The shower still flowed into a slope. Two bodies under a tap- that was a memory, as was the mirror; The  crime after  the crime. All things tight and ugly in the light. The cloud behind, that dragged the sun away.   MB
