Journal Entry #8


OMG! “I walk to my muver’s room but it look different, she looks different. I look like little baby almost. She is talkin’ sweet to me like sometimes Daddy talks. I am choking between her legs A HUH A HUH. She is smelling big woman smell. She say suck it, lick me Precious. Her hand is like a mountain pushing my head down. I squeeze my eyes shut but choking don’t stop, it get worse. Then I open my eyes and look. I look at little Precious and big Mama and feel hit feeling, feel like killing Mama.” (59) The author uses this to show a bit of unnecessary imagery, that gives the reader more detail of the abuse. However, the shock comes that Precious mother is abusing her sexually as well. Precious thoughts of killing her mother seem to be natural to me, but the way she reacts is very interesting. I couldn’t imagine myself or anyone being put into this situation, but if I were, I believe that I would confide in someone. I would maybe talk to a close friend or family member who I knew I could trust. I might even consider running away, but I don’t think I could go to the police. Reading this upset me and my heart goes out to all of the young girls who have experienced this. May you find the happiness and strength you need to move on and “push!”
