Description Nemesis likes to play fair,
and I respect her for that.
if I stab out your eye,
you're welcome to stab out mine.

and when we chat about "equality,"
we sometimes work around the word,
taking quiet bites to miss the rotten spots.
no one understands until
they taste the grainy blackness
rubbing on the roof of their mouth.

no one understands
unless it happens to them.

so, when she speaks her mind,
she's a bitch,
and nobody loves a bitch.
the truth is,
nobody loves when their punching bag
learns to punch back;
suddenly the game isn't fun anymore.

and we're reduced to that one word,
"bitch,"
reduced to
that feminist with the words
men roll their eyes to.

now we've truly sunk,
getting on their level,
clawing like cats,
drawing blood
but not raising wages,
not preventing rape,
not fixing anything.

they are children
with their palms pressed over their ears.
they want me to be robotic, a fleshy
sex-doll for them to fuck
who has tits and no brain,

and I've screamed myself hoarse
but all I've learned
is that no one is listening.

I will not be that woman,
I cannot be that woman.
now, I'll tell you one last time...

if I stab out your eye,
you're welcome to stab out mine:
twin bloody holes, we're wounded,
we're blind.

This piece alone...much less your other wonderful works...is worth sponsoring a premium for you. Enjoy it dear.

wow, this is really beautiful. thank you for understanding that not all men are the same, feminist or not, it's not something people often realise. just like not all women are the same; not all feminists are the same and so on.

I really like your poetry

Thank you very much!

I agree, it's totally unfair to group all men together and say "Oh, you're misogynistic and wrong," because not all men are like that (though unfortunately, some are).Β 

Glad you like it!

thank you for writing this~ i think a lot of people miss the fact that feminism is basically another way of promoting equality [geez, it's so simple, yet everyone always has to go and over-complicate it Β ]
btw, i also love your writing style~Β Β

No problem, it is my pleasure & duty as a feminist. I very much agree. People never take the time to educate themselves and instead jump to false conclusions.Β

Oh absolutely leave it up. Its wonderful. Unfortunately. ..as
in many other things...radicals have garnered more attention and press coverage than people working for a true change based on commitment passion and some morals. Its a fabulous piece.
