Women's Day
It’s Women’s Day and come-what-may
There’s progress we are making.
We’ve given all a wake-up call
And notice they are taking.
It’s not okay when equal pay
Is not out on the table.
Let’s overhaul the protocol
Whenever we are able.
And lechers note – your one-time gloat
Had better vanish quickly
For we won’t stand for moves unplanned;
Reactions will be prickly.
So let’s devote this day to float
A vision of a sequel
When, hand in hand, across the land,
We’re all considered equal.
