Life

Apparently this GIF is the meaning of life… I feel like I can accept that.

A poem I wrote for a contest… It didn’t win. (:

IF THE WORLD WERE A CLASS ROOM<——-(the subject of the prompt) 

It isn’t ‘if’

but is. 

The world is. 

A class. 

The world is-

nt.

A room though. 

Nor a room

of one’s own. 

Sorry Woolf.

We share it. 

A girl

is only a girl

because she is not yet

a woman. 

But to be

a woman…

there’s some things one must know. 

A woman’s ‘organs’ are her own. 

Her body isn’t just a temple, 

her body is her home. 

Respect-

you a hear a lot. 

Respect yourself.

It’s hard. 

“Bitch, slut, hoe…”

What are we

in the face of this world?

Stronger. 

What makes the measure of a man?

Fie. 

Screw it. 

What makes the measure of a WOMAN? 

It is not a man. 

It is not a class room. 

It is not in the words used to belittle. 

So what is it? 

It something every ‘girl’ must find

and that every woman

must hold on to.
