Feminism Poem

I am woman hear me roar, no hear me, I’m right here

Blood stains on the wall

I’m here is my presence worth nothing?  Does my assertiveness not scare you at all?

I am the gorgeous creation from our mother Eve, and I want to speak for the women here

We are not things for you confused individuals

We are not robots, and we don’t say “how high” if someone dare say the word “jump”

I think particularly of the young girls I encounter, confused of their worth

Disrespected, ill-treated, disregarded

Treatment they find okay? Is this the generation of today?

My mind spins, the surface murky please look at your sweet face

It glints back at you, an allusion of oculatory suspense

Understand that’s not how he should speak to you, dare him to hit you, and challenge him to respect you

You own the confidence of yourself; you are the holder of the master key that opens your pride, self-regard and dignity


These words flow from my mouth, extend to my keyboard and yet I still myself fail to take heed to the wisdom that spews from the inner consciousness of myself...

Women

So I was discussing with a friend this blog; its birth and how it had begun.

Frankly it was a realization of female power based on the anatomy we are inherited. She told me it was a contradiction due to the fact that I choose to use the word pussy.

Pussy is granted a very crass word, but it isn't meant to degrade women in any way, shape, or form. And Vagina Power just didn't have the same twang. ..well not to me.

As a woman you’re power is hardly subjected to your lady parts; its power found all throughout us as individuals. What makes women powerful?  

The ability to put your all into everything and keep from complaining. Going after what you want in life.
Respecting yourself and others; realizing your worth and not thinking the buck stops between your legs.
Speaking up against wrong doing, speaking up for you; for yourself.
The inspiration you fuel in other women around you. I’m not saying, “Oh you need to be the next Oprah..” Inspiration can be right within in your home to the daughters and sons those of us raise. To the girl down the street or a young girl who doesn’t have an inspirational focus.

At the end of the day making a change in your life; in your family; in your community; in our world. And that will only help to enhance your own life. Powerful women fill this world; recognition is sadly few and far in between but it doesn't negate the fact that we inhabit this world. 

This blog was designed to discuss the power aspect we harbor, and I could easily create a contrasting blog about the power men have in regards to women, or other men if that happens to be the case.

Women are powerful and worth it. Not because of anatomy, because of everything they do; everything they represent.  But their anatomy does help the cause; a super power if you will. SO this blog isn't designed to disrespect any woman, if anything it’s an avenue for feminist power to be heard and perhaps seen from a perspective that is easier for my demographic to understand.

Feminism of today, for my generation tends to be masked in this stuck up, middle aged, graying, white skinned, baton up her ass type woman, and that doesn't have to be the case. Feminism is advocacy of rights for every and all women. We don’t have a Rosie the Riveter of my generation; she’s just a figure in a textbook.


 Sadly girls have other things, (I find it quite difficult to use the word woman, or female for some of these over publicized individuals) anyway these people are just over sexualized Barbies who use their anatomy as the premise for their entire cause. Whether it is music, acting, dancing; all three..even though most of these celebrities can’t execute one much less all three. Names aren't necessary as I’m sure we all know some so called female celebrity that gives a bad name to women anywhere.


I am a woman. And I love women. I respect women.

This does not mean I hate my male readers lol, it's a joke!! :)
Well women, not girls...but you get the gist!
