Adjourn
Writings of Edna St. Vincent Millay
Even speak to me in these modern times
"To bear your body's weight" that she did say
To think and feel such thoughts today still crimes
"So she came back into his house again"
Writing about her life and her feelings
How she worked for women's rights way back when
Women were servants to men who's dealings
Treated women unfairly with no rights
Thanks to Edna_others who went before
There has been change; some not even in thoughts
Still those selfish men who steadily bore
Edna St. Vincent Millay you opened
My eyes in many ways this story adjourn
