Put on your ***** hat, grab your Kibbles— Let that cat out of your bag Celebrate your business, Womyn Whether you be sprite or hag . . . Which is which? You make us wonder (as you hate on the head-of state) What you're packing. Woman-thunder Promises to titillate. Lead us men into our future Show us where we've gone astray. Shine that light of Matriarchy As we stumble on our way. Pure emotion lights your gender. Superficial party-lines Tie us up. A pussy-bender Just might straighten out your signs. Talking-points at intersections Promise to inflame the game. Seeking brave new world directions Ought to shift some blame.

Feline Frenzy
Before the thunder coats my lungs I whisper soft The storm is a cacophony of pink that flows between slow and stop. In every direction, pointed hats and sharp signs stinging words and biting looks phrases dotted with peaches and comb-overs hardened women fiercer than the surging wind. I had never imagined feeling so powerful until 50,000 women and men and nonbinary friends engulfed my senses in magenta and bubblegum and lightning struck 100,000 times in the space of two blocks.

Why I March
Tonight I sit lackadaisical After a week of the last routine I think back to the start on the mall The roaring chants of the scene Has it been a decade Or only a month How much longer do we have to go As shovel by ***** Both millions of times and once We find the final, finishing blow Tonight I sit, exhausted Just thinking about what comes next Because one senior week, I've lost it And, politically, I don't have a plan for the rest Then I think of that day in D.C. Shouting "This is what democracy looks like!" Pink ***** hats as far as eyes could see And millions worldwide trying to get things right I sit in this booth, so ******* worn out Just knowing that we've still just begun I chastise myself for being inactive It, and sometimes I just want to run But then I see comics speak on air And I see some postcards in a store And I feel like we can really get there If we keep at it a little more

Maybe I Should Get Out There More
The black woman is more valuable to the earth than diamonds or gold She is powerful, strong, she is fire providing warmth to those in the cold The black woman is more beautiful than the sand in the Caribbean sea Her eyes shine brighter than the red of a ruby The black woman is the only one born with the capabilities of raising black boy to black man in America The only one that has proven herself strong enough to brace the cold winds of slavery, systematic racism and oppression The black woman, her heart divine, her soul connected to the divine The black woman, her womb a mine of gold, constantly being robbed Lives constantly being stolen, We care about black lives outside the womb, but what about within. More lives being taken from us, what about our next of kin? Why do we keep falling for America's sin?

Unfinished :Black woman
♀  ♀  ♀ Hey you! In the vagina-hat, frumpy feminist dressed in pink; we men (what do you make of that) would love to know just what you think. We've heard of "ass-hats", anyway. But we can see the other side: it's orificial bombs away as bridegrooms now behold the bride. Gynecology on parade: how weird. You think it makes your point? It's more a vaginal charade, and promises to disappoint. You say your cap evokes your ***** feline foolishness, I say. It's cat in bag when fems get fussy showing patriarchs the way. Show us yours and we'll show our own. Well actually, it's kind of cold to whip it out right here downtown... We'll grant you this: you chicks are bold. Your choice-aborted progeny, disposed of in the clinic's trash, might blame you for misogyny— though spared the curse of diaper rash. We'll keep abreast of all you do, chanting, marching, fists in air... yet still, you seem a silly crew aflush with zeal (and ***** hair). But must it always come to this: biology devoid of God ? Exteriorizing, hit and miss, the secrets of your aging ***

Stoking the Pussyfires
Millions of brave women take to the streets To defy the government's tendencies, The head of the serpent the main oppressor Set to be severed by those who bring life into the world Suffering for the other half of humanity, As they think freely, Create art, Dream in philosophy And sit lonely in scarlet clouds of disdain for the political system ripping out their hearts.

Women's March.
Some people march in a band For sports fans in the grandstands Some march in the military On bases from Hawaii to Italy Some people march to be heard Over all the events that occured And on Saturday, amongst the crowd's clatter I'm joining those who are doing the latter
