Carolyn Oclaire Poet I do not know?

I'M Not That

Lost , confused and broken.
It's time that I spoken.
Hey you, yeah you.
That the way they speak 2 me.
Not as the beautiful black queen that I am.
But as another piece of  trash
''OOOOOH mommy you's a dime piece''.
That's what they say.
Is that all they see women is for there curves
that GOD as given 2 woman.
Why can't we be seen as the SMART,WONDERFUL WOMEN THAT WE'VE 
GROWN 2 BE.
I guess it's 2 much 2 ask for from these men that don't have no respect
for us.
''Hey miss lady'' ,'' you must of fell from heaven ,
cause u gotta be one of gods angles.
Is the bullsh,t they throw my way,
Thinkin I'm gonna jump at the first thing they say.
I'm a WOMAN, not a 304,not a dime piece,
not a jump down.BUT A WOMAN.
Somebodys WIFE,someone MOTHER, A Somebody.
