i saw it on every screen, on the news and on tv
a whole marriages trauma, on display for all to see
the alpha male podcasts called it the death of "me too"
and the culture just keeps getting worse, like there's nothing left to do.

and maybe she wasn't perfect, but she definitely wasn't the villain
surely she didn't deserve hate in the millions.
they sold her crying face on merch, online
justified it with the thought she could be lying.

he would show up the the courtroom,
smile and wave at his fans
he would laugh at her stories
cause he knew he'd get away with it,
because he's just a man.

and then i listen to people talk about it, in my real life
and it makes me think less of them, to be so blind.
these people i know, have been through shit themselves
yet the ridicule them, when it happens to someone else.
