| Run Lola Run Feb 21, 2002 In the sweltering heat and the sad defeat she rested her head knowing out there; in the real world they cut girls like her up for fun. Run Lola run her mother said as she sprinted across the quiet fields a hint? to run and escape this sad place. A knock knock on the door fear, evermore her father rushed in and blind-folded her they cut and cut to make her perfect, they mummured. She bled for days and it hurt her husband had hurt her because it was her culture they cut. Now the time came when she had to say Lola this is enough! and run she did Far away from that but never far enough from the pain and scarification that remains. Marked forever just to be culturally 'right'. |
