The knocking
the door is being knocked, For ages, it has remained closed Who is there? The Sun looks The Breeze Halts Tulips raise their heads in delight But the Cascade still flows on Humming like an indifferent Bee Knock - knock - knock How persistent the knocking is... But who comes calling? Through the peepholes, its light spills in The Valley enlightes with joy Old Cider tree opens its...

Names, dates, birthdays
They don't know my name. I keep it hidden between the folds of my skirt. They told me I had to wear it but they don't like that they can't see my legs anymore. I keep it hidden in the bows holding my pigtails together. They don't know my name. I'm my father's daughter, my brother's...

Mirror, Mirror
Mirror Mirror everywhere Large Small and Pale None it spares from the critiques of its glare Mirror, Mirror, it Surrounds me from everywhere Like Im in a mirror maze, growing inside, in layer Waiting for my death, I am stranded there Quietly it creeps upon me, taking thousand form Pieces of my few thousand years, becomes the norm Where should I run?...

providers
providers mothers provided homelessness to get a job and now walk the streets, terrorizing men what do we do well you kill people so you can go shopping it is called shopping addiction and little boys and girls who you hate die in the receipts of your smile you don't see, but we get abused by the freedom we have as you grow and multiply the fat gross arms...

a shatter of silence
“A fight of voice exceeds one of fists.” Bludgeoned, broken, cast away, Time devours, your name decay, Ascend beyond the gilded throne, Unsung, unrested, still overthrown. Happy Women's History Month!...

Premium Member Annie Londonderry
In 1894, Annie climbed on a bike Told the doubters to take a hike Planned to cycle cross the planet, found sponsors, took a gun Though she died 50 years after, her legend had begun. How much is embellished, it's hard to say, She used steamships to bridge gaps along the way. But thousands of miles she rode alone, While today's rebels...

The Contract, No More
It is her body by God, so they say, But by man and by rite, she belongs to him. The contract, black and white swirls, binding, signed in ink that bleeds into chains. He takes her as he pleases. The decision is not hers to make. Face buried, held by the ringed hand, pressed into the pillow to smother resistance. His knees split...

Feminism
Feminism an idea, Not so new. But its existence in society, In reality is very few. Everyday with evils, She has a fight. She does so to make, The purpose of her life right. For every step she takes, She’s obliged to answer questions. But on her...

A Dream That Chose Me
The dark rooms of my mind take me to a new place every night, This place beams of sunshine, with beautiful sight. This feeling is indeed real, but far from reality, Still, this place thrives my personality. This is a dream, but I did not choose it, it chose me, It is a new era in a different country, Where it...

Feminism - a seasonal phenomenon not!
Feminism not a cause for the season not a “select”…only not a choice to adorn….”esg” not a biscuit to crumble…stale not a tick in the books not to bat away like a gnat not to wash away…a sandcastle not for a cause…far far away not in the land of a female monarch not one queen, more than one not witnessed…anywhere else A graveyard of...

Funeral Flames, Unseen And Unheard
In the land where pyres light the skies, Why do you snatch her voice, her cries? In Hindu rites, sons alone hold the flame, But where’s the daughter’s heart in this game? She’s “impure,” they say, her blood's a sin, But who’s the one who deemed this within? In life she gave care, in death she’s shunned, From the sacred rites, she’s...

The Price of Pink
In a world painted shades of rose, Where costs are hidden, no one knows, A silent burden, an unseen fee, That rests on women, unfairly. A razor's edge, a bottle's hue, The price deflate for things in blue, Yet when in pink, the cost ascends, A subtle tax, which never ends. A shampoo bottle, a gentle scent, But dollars more are often spent, For lotions,...

An Explanation
Appearing suddenly and with haste, Holding nothing but a dagger, She cut open my throat. Like a jilted mistress, naked under the moon, She carved runes under my tongue, Tore my mouth apart And bled things previously unheard. Breath came, In the form of a warrior woman with battle scars, Skin ragged and withered Feet firm upon the ground. Encased in mud, The...

Feminism in it's true sense
Don't fear, My dear We are hear To fight back together Don't wake up early in the morning to finish the chores Wake up to prove yourselves and destroy the whores Be yourself and love yourself beyond limits so that When he says something, you can fight back without being torpid You can do it And I...
