some women do what some men want
out of need out of lack out of negation some women I have known I have been one woman who didn't want to repeat what some woman had done yet I repeated her deeds out of need out of lack out of negation some woman I was no self-equation some woman years have passed gone in a flash time cannot be recalled nor relived I had spent too many years being some woman with not enough to give herself but now I am some woman who wants to live out of love and out of plenty and not having to live as if I had to go or do without any any of what I wanted so dear or where my dreams dwell in the now and here I want some man to share what life is left with some woman this woman no longer bereft nor living in lack or negation I know the sum of my equation I'm not just any woman but some woman who has a lot much more than she ever thought and who's thankful for who I am no longer the one who went with to get along with but the new and improved not the narrow but the broad width the strong one not the wronged one I am the other woman and some kind of woman I am. *********************************** LEGAL COPYRIGHT FOR THIS POEM/WORK DIRECTLY TO THE PAGE AND ALSO FOR THIS AUTHOR/WRITER/TRUTH-SAYER MELISSA A HOWELLS AND ALSO FOR THIS LEGALLY COPYRIGHTED SITE TITLE MELOO STRAIGHT FROM HER TILT-A-WORLD 11:03pm PST date/time stamped for copyright I once was a stray cat, but now have found I have the heart of a lioness.
