Unplanned words spilled out

from my mouth to establish,

“you are not in charge.”


I am radiant,

my worth is not based on you,

I am beaming warmth.


Painted veil, pressed dress,

one bright smile, no event–

just because I can.


Resting bitch face on,

a woman with a mission;

don’t get in my way.


I do not owe you

a smile or a giggle,

you are not funny.


A female sports fan

can appreciate the game

it’s not just all lust.


God is a Woman

sitting on a shiny throne,

adorned in satin.
