Woman: A collaboration with Niknshell  

The allure of a woman
Reduced to minimalistic pieces..
Her breast..
Her hips..
Her Sway
This allure has driven a many of men to seek
Control, regulate, administrate, and govern
This collection of beings
So much power within each
The abilities that historians continue to grapple with..
The essence, creations, even devastation  instilled within each one..
Yeah see Delilah, Nefrete, Quick Draw Annie, hell even Nicki Minaj
Attempts to control
Rights that by nature are not their's
A woman
Much more than the pieces defined..
Much more than choices to continue or terminate..
Much more than the "other" half of someone else
Much more than legitimate excuses for travesties..
You know those words that are hushed but speak loudly even when quited
Woman..

You see my lips
See my breasts
See my hips
See my curves.
You see these things
And think less of me.
You see these things
And box me in.

You refuse to see
Refuse to admit
To my cunning mind
My words behind the lips you desire
My heart behind the breasts you crave
My gift of life
To be unleashed behind the hips you watch.
My perfect design
Hidden inside the depths of my curves.

You wish to control
To change me.
You cut me down
And turn my gifts into a crime!
A vortex of suspicious behavior
And false love.

You use me for my sex
And I am the one with false love.
I am the manipulator
And the criminal.

I am more than you claim
More than you see.
I am more than a body
To receive your pleasure from.
More than a body
To house your unborn child.
I am more than your "other half"
More than your mother
Your daughter
Your wife
Your niece
Your cousin.
I am me.
I am woman.
