How Dare You

How dare you speak to me
About changing my life?
How do you conceive of this idea
That you can control me?
That you can tell me what I can
And cannot do with my body?!?
My tattoos are an eyesore?
My abortion is immoral?
That is not your decision to make!
Shall I tell you
“You must get a piercing!
I want to see some tattoos on that FIIINE ass!”
Why is it ok for you
And not for me?
I will not stand for this.
I will not bend to your will
Doing as you say
With what is rightfully mine.
It is my skin
My blood
My sex
My child.
I will not have a child
Who will be born dead
I will have that abortion!
I will not have that child
That result of rape.
I cannot have that child!
I will not let you tell me
What to do
What to think
What to believe!
I will not stand for this
Because I am me
And you are you
And if you try to change that
You are screwed.
