Freedom Cover Every Woman Bob and Wheel

Freedom;
I can wear what I want,
nothing to overcome;
There are places that haunt
overrun with pond scum;

Cover 
only when I want to;
Others drown and smother;
Breathe? Something she can’t do;
Back off. She’s my sister;

Every 
female should be outraged;
For all of her bravery 
she was raped and pillaged;
Branded with memory;

Woman, 
beside you I will stand;
We’ll formulate a plan 
til’ these men understand 
that we too are human.
