Some Stray Thoughts on Misogyny
Your Mother's Eden, see.
Her plants watered only by drink
divine, without adultery.
She doesn't lust, she doesn't ache.
She'll make the beds, and break
the eggs. And if she doesn't, death awaits.
But Eden always dies. No tree
or blade exists without mortality's
office. And yet we blame Eden, the dog.
And should a woman turn on us...
Eden doesn't just wither, it burns.
Why else were England's witches only burned
when wife's magic was used against husbands?
The codes of masculinity
were built on...

Riding the Camelid of Distress on International Women’s Day
Chillin’ in a state of constant fear and trauma
And all I gots to say is thanks Obama
I be twitching and shaking on my way back home
I have a hard time remembering David the Gnome
The theme song specifically, and how that junks went
Door Dash is how my whole paycheck got spent
And even tho I be craving that KFC
I know it ain’t the healthiest meal for me
But imma YOLO this shit till the walls come down
I’m livin’ it up and painting the town
A dark shade of puce
Imma let it hang loose
I suspect Lizzo been having more mayo...

We are women
Do we stand? Do we stumble?
Are we strong? Are we nimble?
Do we shake? Do we shiver?
Are we cold? Do we quiver?
No, we are women
We sadly don’t get that choice
You have to constantly fight
For your right to deserve life

Torpedo Jamming, Rocket Mapping & Other Innovators in History
Praise your moms, praise your sisters, praise your daughters, praise your queens
Praise all the women in your life who have helped you achieved your dreams
Honor those women who have contributed to society but never got the glory
It’s March, it’s women’s history month so learn about them and tell their stories
Like
Did you know that Hollywood star Hedy Lamarr was also an inventor?
The actress of the silver screen had patents and other inventions that still apply
During the war she came up with the idea of frequency jamming for torpedoes
And that...

Hollow
You scooped my insides out and left me as empty as a hollow pin pricked egg; left with nothing but half baked sorry ass text message apologies, and crying so hard at night I could not breathe.
I don't know why I always fall for men like you, perhaps it is something that I am missing within myself, that maybe I think that they must have; but never do.
I have been picked apart by so many people, my bones used as toothpicks and my heart as an ashtray; that I have somehow forgotten what being enough for someone felt like in the first place.
You told me you had...

A Brief History of Hating Women
Since youth you’ve been obsessed
by how the ills of all society
are lain at women’s doors like skins.
From Potiphar’s wife to Mrs Clinton,
it’s always women’s fault.
She wasn’t a good enough mum,
she couldn’t keep mum,
she slept around all over town
or seemed at least like that’s
what she wanted. Or else she was frigid.
You realise in the end that no true road exists between the rock of what men want and what
you’d like to be, a hard place undefined.
The truth is that you’re just as flawed as men, as great, and grim,...

You Are Enough
Dear Ladies
You are not pretty enough
That's the message you hear every day
They may not say it like that But
they do in there own way
So I wanna tell you something
You may not be pretty enough
But you are beautiful
See being britty is cool
But it don't last
The more you obsess
over the body you have
The more you will feel pain
Cause see one day the prettiness
that you charrish o so much
Will fade
And you won't be able to use
Juno, lock or villincy
Or filter it in away ...

ICONIC
This is for the ladies who are more
Than what they seem,
The ones who wake up everyday
And paint there face with pretty things
Just to be able to compete
With unrealistic expectations
The obligations of a woman
That just wants some validation
Were brought up on the lie
That our women aren't sacred
Just procreators that God gave us
Nothin but baby makers
But its mind over materialism
Thats what they should've told us
We don't even grow up
We just live to get older
Its all a game and I'm folding ...

My Oracle Sacred Rites Of The Placenta (Part I of Part II)
Unto life that has been given unto the womb, a sacred connection between the divine, intermission of growth and development from embryo to a fetus, to the deliverance of man child or woman child into the enlightenment from the mythical of passage from the Heavens to Earth, in exile from the darkness unto the light of Eve’s disobedience manifested by life and death.
I will ask level-minded intellects a question, what are the gifts we get from the universe, when we are without guidance, blind eyes as looking through the world with the innocent of a childlike’s perceptions.

To The Ladies out there We all need to hear this.
Women:
You don't have to do everything,
you don't have to be a supermom,
a super housewife,
a super professional,
a superwoman...
Because when your body claims you,
there will be few who will remember
you tried to be all in one!
So get out of the house,
travel, walk, workout, go to the park,
go to a gym, eat what provokes you,
fix yourself, sleep later,
put on clothes you like, be yourself,
take care of yourself, love yourself,
say no sometimes and
do it EXCLUSIVELY for YOU!!

I AM A WOMAN
I am a woman .
Seen as the weaker man .
But I no for one
Where my strength lies .
Without huge muscles I pull .
My strength is in my heart .
And a better reflection of my heart on my chest .
I am a woman .
The weaker one
But with valour I bring a man down .
Bound to my sweet chain .
He choose to stay
Forever a prisoner to my breast .
Where milk and ease flows .
A relieve he claims it is
But bound , I know he truly is .
I am a woman .
I stand strong in courage .
My hand...

Women are allowed to break oaths
professions sewn from hope
burn bridges to the ground
to make room for what counts
II
The problem with violence
is that it captures attention—
making it effective
When our bodies vibrate into action
we reach for reason
to hypnotize us
into balanced numbness

In my domestic violence exhibit
at the local library
one victim had written: ...
