Elvis Has Left The Building


And the tears you gave me
are nothing compared to the pain
I tried to laugh it off
but each attempt in vain

No, I will not hold it against you
holding a grudge isn't me
So then I'll simply say good bye
and with my pride, leave the party.

It doesn't matter that you have changed now
it doesn't matter that you care
Your needs and wants and desires have been left behind
So has your intense stare

You said that it is forever
but, baby, forever's come and gone
I, then, realized that this was your game
and I was just a lowly pawn

No, I won't hold it against you
for you don't matter no more
Elvis has left the building now
as well as the nearby alcohol store!

A Woman's Warning


I may be a girl
but I sure as hell am not weak
I may be a lady
but I can do more than i speak
I may be a woman
who can bear your future 
But I am a person
a person, not a freak!


You think you can intimidate
and scare like a child
Oh, you don't know my temper
it is rare, but not mild
While I can birth
I can kill with equal ease
If you cross me the wrong way
I will do much more than just tease


It may be a joke for you to laugh at
but sexist comments are a bane for me
While you simply say and let it go
it is a scar insane for me
I don't know why you think that you will get away with it
do I look like someone who will forever live with it?
I will take myself and the comforts I bring
and move away from your traumas, in joy I will sing


It isn't running away when it is the harder thing to do
it is a choice, for even a woman must do what a woman must do
I think it is best if you get your act together soon
else the repercussions in the near future will turn you a loon
We all wish only the best for you because it is our nature
but things can change, as I can see in the near future
mothers, daughters, sisters and wives
don't forget, these are all real lives

So stop playing with us, you morons of men
you don't need to be a cock just because she is a hen!

I may be a girl
but I sure as hell am not weak
I may be a lady
but I can do more than i speak
I may be a woman
who can bear your future 
But I am a person
a person, not a freak!

Parenting 101



Before you become a parent, think twice
some days it's a ball of fire, some days a bucket of ice.

You cannot plan your days and your actions predict
and sometimes you start looking like a lost drug addict.

You miss your carefree days and your wild and fun filled ways.
You know you will never again find time to crash those parties and plays.
But being a parent is a whole new roller coaster
you learn how to manage a toast, without a toaster! 
When you see those love filled smiles
and those hugs that can make you go miles 
You know that you made a choice
and trust me, it is always a choice! 
#ItTakes2ToParent
Its a great thing to be a parent, my friend
to have someone who's love for you will be true till the very end!

The Breast Predicament




I wonder what I did wrong when I chose to have mammary glands!
which I'm sure I chose, since I'm held accountable for it.

They want to hold them in their hands
and some can't take their eyes off that tit.

 Most times they want them covered up.
often they don't even look away from them when they ask me "what's up"!

Don't they realize that cleavage isn't a big deal?
Its not an eclipse who's glimpse you must steal.

They want them big, some like them small
but whatever the size, they are lusted after by them all.

It is the breasts, that some say, lead to rape
they are the ones, who I think, are lesser evolved than the ape!

Look, mister misters, my mams are mine.
And if you think it makes me lesser than you, then you are every bit a swine!

Undress Me



Undress me with your eyes
for even my souls is bare before you

Undress my very thoughts
for they are but figments without you

Undress my passions
for you are the subject of my desire

Undress me now
for only you can satisfy this fire

My Mother is a Feminist


There is nothing she can't do,
No challenge she can't fulfill.
I have never seen her easily tired
And when I act like a jerk, I get duly fired.

She fearlessly stands up for what she believes in,
And has taught me to do the same too.
Thanks to her I don't judge a girl,
Just because she speaks up or has a tattoo.

She taught me to respect every human being, woman or man.
I have seen her do for others as much as she can.
She cooks and cleans and runs errands as well,
But because she enjoys it and not because she is a servant called by a bell.

She respects my dad
My dad respects her.
And when they tease each other
There often is a tiny spur.

They are like the best of friends,
Because both are equal and neither is at a lower end.

My mother is a feminist,
I think it’s really cool.
Because that has ensured that
I'm not an egotistical, misogynist fool.
