Mistery Mistressed

Mister to mistress, down from helm Read that face, the –ess before Perhaps a freedom, attached for them Elevated men form, -ess borrowed for Names so matter, from less we borrow So men do settle, in numbers precedent Security in titles, scares for women Alone no stand, woe- we borrow Titles for men, we wonder for women Gender still a quiz, across the sphere Woewii! Our wail, campaign for Wopresident On the way we go, down the helm For the societal role, for me affixed Leaf my name, to lead adds sir Last on the coffin, I hit and hit And hit to sound, the bottoms unseen Men and women, all I urge sing freedom Elevate every seldom, all grass just green
