“I will ever be the fierce little girl”

I  am more than a body , a man’s roving eyes would see
To be  shamed or disparaged
When unseen hands would touch me;
I would shed my modesty then
Every strip of it,
I will not hold on to my chaste being-
To  drive  his craven lust
I would be not be the laid,  to crown his prowess or virility
Nor would I shrink or shy away, with that nudity 
There never could be a victim, when it’s a fierce little girl in me
To fight the fabric that straitjackets a woman
The clichés, the conventions, the conforming,
If this clothing were to be ripped
Will Rape still be  a dictum of his victory?
