The Danger Within
Content Warning: This is a poem that tells a story of sexual harassment and violence in a workplace setting. While fictitious, the situations described can be very real and aren't to be taken lightly. I've done my best to not describe anything in a graphic way, but if you are someone who finds this type of thing unsettling, I would rather you didn't read this, even if that means I don't get your views. Still, I feel compelled to write and share this, so assuming this poem gets approved, here it is.
