Superwomen
I miss superwomen.
They led us through somehow.
Not off a cliff,
Or into an abyss.
Strongly and quietly stating the obvious.
Human beings are important.
Each person has a place.
To contribute to our community,
Our country and space.
The superwomen I miss.
Could fill this page with a list.
Ginsberg
Chisholm
Ochoa
To name a few.
Where are our superwomen?
Ready to speak with elegance, intelligence, and grace.
Where are our superwomen,
To lead us from disgrace.
