Jane Fonda

1981 was a year I’ll always remember
The movie “On Golden Pond” debuted
I saw it on the big screen

It was nice nothing special
Right up until that horrific scene
The one that changed our lives forever

My jaw suddenly dropped
Instantly realizing its significance
The camera ever so slowly zoomed in

From ever so far and ever so deviously
Inching towards Jane Fonda in her mid-forties
Sporting a skimpy bikini ~

Revolutionizing expectations forever
Life as we knew ended that day ~
Since then women are heard muttering
See what you did, Jane Fonda
