Women…a poem
women
no two alike
scared
and battered
used and abused
from living on an
unequal playing field
early years
delightful
tortured
or something
in between
violence
at every turn
giving life
to the world
but unappreciated
and scorned
some are obedient
fearful
quiet
sweet
polite
or broken
while some
are wild
fearless
and roaring
with rage
looks
can be deceiving
and like magicians
some women can turn into
the wolves they run with
so best not to
piss them off
