PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I am an amazon. Deep, tough, bold, rough.

You don't like that?

Too bad. So sad.

I come to play, deep within your territory.

Does it hurt your pride?

I attempted to fit in - really, I tried.

But obviously, you don't consider us kin.

I am just a woman in your eyes.

Just a woman...

Just a woman? I'll show you JUST!

You think that because you were born with a dick

You can control me?

Because you were born with a dick

You are better than me?

Oh, you are blind! So very blind!

I simply despise your kind.

The kind that sweeps me aside because I'm female.

The kind that tells me I am only good for cooking,

Cleaning, and making babies.

That I have no right to be adventurous.

No right to love to play "men's" sports.

No right to speak out

Against intolerance and sexism

That happens every day in front of my eyes!

You're the kind I simple despise.

But you know what?

I will not stoop down to your level.

You may be naive, cocky, and ignorant, but I am not.

I will not hurt others

Just because I am scared to appear weak.

You know what?

Whenever you talk to me like you do,

And try and push me down...

You look weaker than you know.
