Rebel Willow

Where do we stand? How does he know I stand with him. Does he know I don't?

Commitment unbroken, I do still rebel at his thoughts, his preferences

for me.

I do not want to look like that.

He only wants me free I only want to win my own freedom.

 

He does not go with a woman or a girl or a gal or a madam

He goes with the bone of Adam

If Adam was a King, so too was Eve.

She was made of King.

 

I will not sit quiet, I will not be still

I will listen, I will love

I will not behave

I will serve

I will not agree

I will watch

 

Do you know what I sacrifice?

Never, you blind fool with your face all in muck and your ears full of the dripppppppping candle wax while your fingers scratch in the dirt peeling away your fingernails.

Mirror, mirror on the wall...
