Keep her chained down. Break the chain,
and watch her walk all over you. And
you’d deserve it, because you gave away
your power for free. Women say they’re
looking for nice guys, but they don’t
respect passive pussy-men. Women want
their lovers to be killers. Give them what
they want.
Women get beaten because they’re so
EASY to beat. Hear them crying in a
hundred thousand trailers all over America
tonight. Get a police scanner and listen
to all the domestic-violence calls. Blasts of
static. Street addresses. Ages and races of
suspects. What they’re wearing. Do you
need backup? Police dispatchers always
have a flat, flavorless tone in their voices.
They don’t convey the VIOLENCE. The
desperate, vicious couples. The shirtless,
sweaty men with their mouths hanging
open. The sobbing women holding paper
towels to their bleeding, matted scalps. The
screaming, tear-streaked kids running
around in shitty diapers. The lacerated
emotions. Such a scene demands violence
to restore order. The cops can’t beat every-
one; domestic violence picks up the slack.
All the battered women in all their
battered women’s shelters. Swollen eyes,
fat lips, cracked ribs. Fractured illusions.
Love’s sweet promise broken a million times
over. Crying that they still love him.
Keeping it together for the kids’ sake. He
says he’s sorry. She forgives him. He finds
a job. They get back together, and it’s nice
for a while. Then he beats her with a tire
jack until her ribs puncture her lungs. Dead
promise. Dead wife.
