Can you look right through me?
Do you know what you're seeing
when you find a smile on my face?
I'm just waiting to pounce
Empty, hollow nothing inside of each girl
planted there
and filled only by the hand of man...
Wink and a giggle gets your further
then your rights do
I suppose
at times
maybe
... do they?
Player player player
look at the hearts you toy with-
toy with?
Hmm,
not when you stick your own head through the snare...
I daresay my dear
lil plump 'round the middle?
Tell the fuzz you were raped,
put the boy you had climbed on in jail-
and yes
it happens.
Well, hold on
we also get a double standard.
Slut or prude
take your pick
either way you'll have to regret it.
There's no real love for a prude
boys run or try to conquer
whereas sluts get all the boys attention
and nothing at all for it
'cept a cocktail of pills every morning
for the rest of their lives...
But with with guys all bets are off
right?
Sleeping around is fine
horniness doesn't equal whoriness when the penis involved
is your own...
So it's fair then right?
This revenge?
This "take a little more from you
cuz ya never gave it in the first place?"
Am I just another chick to you?
Can you trust the smile on my face?
Or dear sweet, how I love you
and everything you do
for ever and ever
Till death rips me apart
or until the divorce swallows everything up
("We were too in love for a pre-nup-- then.").
Lucky you!
If you're a jerk we can storm out of the restaurant
and leave you with our bill
it's only fair,
right?
You can screw around but we can take your money-
A a ah!
Put down that fist,
my darling,
unless you fancy men and metal bars
you'd best be calming that rage
lest I survive and sue.
All it is is
sexy woman on the street
double take swivel head
open handed smack across the face
a smile and a wink
and the clink of stilettos--
GENDER EQUALITY.
