If Women
If Women
If the earth floats through the universe
borne on the back of a giant tortoise
it surely must be female
for the ride is smooth and silent
and rarely falters.
if women were the weaker sex
evolution would have stopped
in the warmth of primordial seas
eve would have remained a rib
god would not have had to invent her.
if women were truly the weaker sex
the earth would shriek
with the accumulation of their pain.
