the wrath of a
woman's scorn
cannot compete
with the wrath
of a scorned woman's
heart
but here you are
in all of your
glorified excuses
asking me to just
understand
that at the end
of the day
youre just
a man
with needs
and me
well you see
im just a woman
who did not fulfill
my inherited duties
but my dear
IM
NOT
EVE
i will not stand
sit
or even fall
for your demands
yes i know
honey
youre just a man
looking to withstand
this feminist movement
but youre just
a little too late
and im just
a little too strong
ive been here too long
to just succumb
to the demands
of a man
who thinks that he can
overpower
rule over
and lay down the law
simply because
in his mind
he can
this world has always been
mine for the taking
but i tried to be
gracious
sacrificial
and even
patient
but that just
wasnt enough
to you
mr man
the same one
who could not withstand
my pride
my freedom
my dignity
so you sought
to take it from me
and i
the daughter of none
stood against you
adam
the first born son
and yes
i left you
and your little garden
and you cried
and begged
for your maker to
return me
but i denied him
just as i denied you
oh i love you both
but not enough
to be ruled over
and
overpowered
simply because
you both say
you can
but i cannot be bound
my spirit is free
and my heart is pure
i love you both
but no more!
i am placing an end
to your tyrannies
to the long
standing oppression
of women
by you men
and i am
victorious over you
for
i am
an equal
i am
superior
i am
the life giver
your very life
dear mr man
is tied to the contents
of my womb
i am your mother
and this world
this world is my cradle
you see
i am
the originator
i am
the martyr
i am
lilth
