Poem
Sexism Growing up we’ve always thought people were born with a disgusted look on their faces Because that’s how they have always looked at us Boxes check 1 check other People don’t know we hid between people like we do They don’t swich and twitched activitly make decisions of which Which part of us do we have to change to fit in today Which aspect of are personality will a fend the least and blend the most And work and succeed and bury the lead like a switchboard of traits that decide are fate And were always wrong Always worst than the boys Always asking them to stop And people point are way Like the scarecrow Like tornados blowing us which ever way the wind blows Well we don’t want to play games today Us girls are prepping for the final Just like any footballer dose The box is empty And glaring and daring for us to choose one Well were an expert at being ignored Are whole life we have been preparing And were an expert at it now we can just to turn away From a nasty comment In a second Because where there is roots there is power But all we are is topsoil Are blood is like water and oil refusing to stick Are old comments that have been sat in the back of are heads That camera that locks all comments in a flash Saved for when we cant last That comment that sparked a fire inside us That all fit in a box that can be carried from one side to the other Of are heads But that’s not a kind of question people ask So many line in the sand And so many cants and cans We see both worlds So why cant you? And we skip and jump and dance And still fall in between We belong in the spaces between Check all that may apply After we are all the same
