Powerful and deep
What’s it like to be a woman?
To know the joys of Motherhood
To serve as if it was your duty
A man, a family, a community
Not getting paid for it
What’s it like to feel a woman?
To feel a vacancy between the legs
Under the skirt, a summer breeze
And eyes on me, like the feast of gulls?
What’s it like to be a woman?
To have closer social bonds
To never truly be alone, how
Does that feel? To have protective
Fathers, and possessive boyfriends?
What’s it like to be a woman?
I will never know, to feel the dresses
Caress you, as you blithely change
From mauve, to peach, to blue.
How does it feel to have skin
Like olive oil, and wear perfume
What’s it like to seduce a man
With just a pouty look, what’s it like
To have to earn your place…
