Analysis of Chamber of God
He struck her so hard she fell to her knees
And showed him mercy for not loving him enough
I forgive you she laughed then she cried
He raped her for the hundredth time and she came without feeling
He demanded tell me to love you
She said I love you more than any touch of your body
Something he had taught her long ago
Namaste he said you can get dressed now
Then she put on her school uniform
And they both thought
I'm done with you
Then they assessed their bodies and minds and then thought to their souls
I love you but are you mad?
