Just a Woman

Eat my flesh
As you take my voice
Smother me with commands
And take away my rights
You hate my kind,
hate my given anatomy
Yet you still want more of a “mutton dressed as lamb”
Even though i “defy” your masculinity and “steal” away your careers
You still want more.
I ask you this while still being under your eye.
Am I still a man's daughter?
Or am I just your easy game?
Doesn't really matter in the end.
I am just a woman.
