Queens Don’t Swing
Gotta say, it saddens me,
How we walk by one another,
But won’t speak,
Will give a body scan though,
Pause & look each other from head to toe,
Assuming the position of some kind of enemy,
Treating each other like a foe.
All of that, I try not to feed,
Because honestly, there’s really no need,
I’m never here to compete...
That’s not possible because we’re all unique:
Ain’t no one like you...
& ain’t no one like me.
Like Ms. Scott tried to tell us,
Queens Don’t Swing,
So you can fix your face, ...
How we walk by one another,
But won’t speak,
Will give a body scan though,
Pause & look each other from head to toe,
Assuming the position of some kind of enemy,
Treating each other like a foe.
All of that, I try not to feed,
Because honestly, there’s really no need,
I’m never here to compete...
That’s not possible because we’re all unique:
Ain’t no one like you...
& ain’t no one like me.

The Real G
Ruth was an icon, she was the real G
Bader was crusader for women’s rights
Ginsburg fought for justice and equality
Taking on battles, shining a bright light
She was a rockstar when she’d disagree
Flexing muscle - just check out her arm curls
And her dissents were very legendary
Schooling you till you clutched your pearls
Her influence enhanced our society
I think she was a badass in retrospect
Don’t believe me, read up on herstory
She truly deserves some mad respect
R.I.P. Dear Notorious R.B.G.
You are a hero...
Bader was crusader for women’s rights
Ginsburg fought for justice and equality
Taking on battles, shining a bright light
She was a rockstar when she’d disagree
Flexing muscle - just check out her arm curls
And her dissents were very legendary
Schooling you till you clutched your pearls
Her influence enhanced our society
I think she was a badass in retrospect
Don’t believe me, read up on herstory
She truly deserves some mad respect
R.I.P. Dear Notorious R.B.G.
You are a hero...

Misogyny Within Society
Dress like this,
Dress like that,
Don’t wear that in public at all,
Shave your arms,
Shave your legs,
Make sure you are a blank canvas,
For others to write rules,
For others to write regulations,
For others to write wage gaps,
For others to write “back handed compliments”
Yet if your canvas is damaged,
Left with no love or care,
You are left to repair it yourself,
Your canvas with rules from others,
Ruined because of non-consent,
You were a masterpiece once,
Ruined by the Misogyny,
Engrained...

i lust. im sorry, but i do.
how may i support you all
such voices of Female power
how do i preach to stop and listen
to such rock and roll
and fluid grace
how do i wreck it like ralph
and pave way for your march
to lick my wounds at the potential loss of stilettos
where the feel of your true weight
applies itself to mind and flesh
trampling on stale egos
steamrolling well oiled habits
crushing them with a reckoning force
it makes me pant
seeing air quake emanation
silent roars finally heard aloud
wishing to be selfless ...

Woman Lover
Have you ever talked to a woman before?
A woman can give you love, happiness, and even more.
But in the past, women were seen as the lesser gender,
But that’s just not right, and I want to be the gap mender.
Women deserve lots of love and attention,
They deserve lots of hugs and other things I should mention.
A woman is courageous, a woman is bold,
Someone to talk to, someone to hold.
And if you meet one, you love more than the others,
Love them like you would love a sister or brother.
They need lots of cuddling...
A woman can give you love, happiness, and even more.
But in the past, women were seen as the lesser gender,
But that’s just not right, and I want to be the gap mender.
Women deserve lots of love and attention,
They deserve lots of hugs and other things I should mention.
A woman is courageous, a woman is bold,
Someone to talk to, someone to hold.
And if you meet one, you love more than the others,
Love them like you would love a sister or brother.
They need lots of cuddling...

for angry Women
have i not apologized for my sex?
alpha, beta, omegas alike
please let me then take on your scowls
your tattered patience tested for ages
before Betty could alter
and preach Mystique
before Suffrage gave its first step to voices
for which the universe is in such thirst
one moment at a time
my eyes downward
ego between legs
ears laid out flat across the land you traverse
let me hear your pulse
as your rhythm picks up speed
and your will
like mass applying its force
runs over our delusions so...

What They Had Seen In That Gym
Some guys had nothing
to say after they saw her
slam on that bag hard.
to say after they saw her
slam on that bag hard.

It's not just a man
it's a woman—
but more than that
a woman of color
It's transgender, gay
lesbian, or bisexual;
it's Asian, Natives:
American, Alaskan, Hawaiian
and Pacific Islander;
it's Indian, Latino
Hispanic, Black
and more women
than any other cabinet
the history of America had
It's not just a man
we celebrate today
nor put our faith in—
it's balance, equality
one nation, indivisible
with liberty and...

Liminal Spaces
In these times of uncertainty
we seek a way to proceed
through saturated fear and grief
This juncture in history
is daunting, an experience
of crossroads and liminality—
the dying gasps of patriarchy
surrendering to a paradigm shift
still wobbly on its feet
The Age of Aquarius;
a loving agitator
against the dulling down
of Divine Feminine grace
~

Her Crayons
She was drawing a picture of a flower during art class,
making it pink, as it was her favorite color.
The boys in her class teased her often,
They would pick on her for her funny laugh,
or pull on her hair,
But she didn’t mind.
She was making this picture for her mother back at home.
Her mother would hang up all of the little girl’s pictures on the fridge.
So she continued to draw, filled with the excitement of showing her mother the drawing she's working ever so hard on.
That is, until some of the boys came up to her and took her crayons. ...
