Authority
Grew up on the unity of absolute hatred
raised on purebred standards
put in a position of submission to undermine others
when I, myself, have a lot to learn
praised by the thought of earning more money than my successor
but the action itself should never be done
you were once clever, for equal rights, and against misogyny
today you are all the things wrong with you
forgetting the ultimate power of the female mind and soul
why our lives are not meant to hold someone else’s
as we are coming into our own rebirth, celebrating the very essence of ourselves
you scream and kick,
“Shoot out a kid!
get a job!
Marry a decent man”
acceptance has become a standard that i no longer carry or desire to strive for
the very meaning of the word has been twisted, altered, stripped of its meaning
why must you be so confident to start fights yet crawl on your feet when
something doesn’t go your way?
I do not agree with your ideals
I say no to your harsh words
the year is no longer 1976.
you must revise yourself year after year, everyone should
every seven years, we grow a new layer of skin
we should be growing another perspective.
