This is such a great poem! It's really the perfect example of where the structure ultimately expresses meaning, not only reinforcing it. The poem is indeed vicious and powerful, but I don't think it's necessarily about rape. It's literally about being "stuffed", in all meanings of the word... and obviously an overpowering male that has made his now "tame" woman completely impotent to change things.
