It Has Not Always Been

This piece is my thought alone. If it upsets anyone good, because we women need to fight the internalized Patriarchy which has colonized our thought for thousands of years. it has not always been sisters are you clearing now with tiny tin type tweezers, the patriarchy that sits bone deep among our apple flowers. until we form our own thoughts unshadowed by Adam’s folly until in freedom are our choices made far from misogyny’s rule the tide will remain rolling in a thoughtless flow of misbelief about our very being informed by patriarchic lassitude. it is useless trying to explain, no matter how fine the language, the daily life each woman lives in fear so deep it binds us to definitions, not our own, of what it is to be woman. we have forgotten who we really are but SHE has not forgotten us.
