Personal Development

it's the little you say
that actually means a lot
such as seeing a woman empowered
but you call her a "thot".

or watching the shows that I romanticise 
you call it "bull" and
tell me to open my eyes.

what about the two men that kissed on screen?
it makes you want to scratch your eyes, pull your hair 
and scream.

but these are the things that make me who I am
and couldn't care less if you oppose
because frankly,
my darling, I don't give a ing damn.
