… A woman's Place
A woman's place is in the poem
expressed in couplets rare, for
only a poet will ever find her there.
but it's not a poem if no one "opens
it and turns the key … oh, she'll there"
for some of us to see.
All of Time was written within her
and her body was encased in verse.
Her wisdom and her beauty could not
have been rehearsed.
She's in the poem - unless the poem
Lives -- inside -- of her, then the lyrics &
stanzas will be her walk, you'll smell
gardenias when she talks.
Flowers will bust from her bosom and
callalilies from her castle's floor, she will
speak of roses & baby's breath and
her veil will be the door
She needs to be in the poem,
Not by your side, or in the house
for birthing the next generation,
but spoken eloquently by mouths
who know that she's been taken …
Taken from … the bottle of maple syrup;
pulled off the box of pancakes; and torn
from the covers of Elle and videos that
degrade her for the sheer sexual sell
Taken off … the trophy case and the stares
of lustful eyes, her place is forever
book-marked by the ribbons of her thighs
…. and it's a poem
