6d
in this age, you have given sexism a voice.
i’ll be forever haunted by “your body, my choice.”
in the past, i’ve been tempted to rise along with #metoo,
yet as of now, i feel there’s nothing i can do.

in reality, i’m powerless against the ignorant mob.
i feel my body was a temple that was erected to rob.
even before it’s begun, i feel stripped and enraged—
my wings clipped, my voice gone from inside this cage.
