When asked how I feel about men I have come to a reply That is at once concise and yet insufficient But I say Men make me wish I didn’t have a face. Make me contemplate how much easier it would be to be a featureless blob Men turn the phrase “flesh prison” from meme into reality Men make me feel less than human Men make me feel helpless Bound tight within a world that tells me The struggle is futile Your cries for help will be silenced Men make a mockery of beauty They smother and crush all that is precious in this world Men make me want to light this body on fire Just to watch them choke on the smoke.

Men
When asked how I feel about men I have come to a reply That is at once concise and yet insufficient But I say Men make me wish I didn’t have a face. Make me contemplate how much easier it would be to be a featureless blob Men turn the phrase “flesh prison” from meme into reality Men make me feel less than human Men make me feel helpless Bound tight within a world that tells me The struggle is futile Your cries for help will be silenced Men make a mockery of beauty They smother and crush all that is precious in this world Men make me want to light this body on fire Just to watch them choke on the smoke.
