New Woman
I have left behind all aquiescence, disrobed past
motives of pleasing the crowd.
I no longer dress in former passivity and never
defend any conformity.
Compliance, from now on, is simply not me.
For sanity's sake I sent flat brogues to charity
centres and became re-invented.
Circumventing subservience and any pretence
I wear independence boldly.
To any lesser degree of non-submissiveness my
control I shall never release.
Men refer to me now as "Miss Self-Assurance"
in tight nets and high heels.
So better not mess with my new-found feeling
on pure contumaciousness.
I might resent it, wear your ties for my garters
and not be too nice.
Beware this flighty new woman is known to bite.
