A Womans Struggle

If i ruled the world it would be controlled by women with no worries at all,  wait wait don't applaud not just any women buy women of color. 

Ok now you clap and now you cheer, not just because the woman issue but because the words i speak are sincere.

Many many years and where did they get, nowhere but got treated like like dirt which made them feel like shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Whoa whoa whoa one man opens if mouth to say, If it was not for us they would not be here today

Well i'm sorry my brotha someone jhas told you wrong, do you forget where we came from and who made you strong.

We talk about equalibrium but where is it at from the marches of Martin Luther King Jr and many others who had our back.

Harriet Tubman lets not forget about he we would still be Under-The ground railroad which brings me back to the essence of which i speak

Who holds you down after a ruff day of work and bring you back to your feet, who takes care of the kids, and hol the fort down while your gone

still you talk that same tired ol' song, "Woman where is my food and what did you do allday. No you wonder why they talk about us the way they do and want to stray, because of men like you, and you, and you who all think these things are expected , never thanking her once but always making her feel neglected.  I could go on,on,on,on,and on but you might have the nerve to call me a woman and say im giving you another sad song.

I enjoyed reading your poetry Lenwood.

I noticed a few very tiny likely not intended grammatical mistakes some like brotha I know you intended but the others I don't think you meant so if you would like I'd be happy to private message you and point them out if you would like to fix them, if not, then kindly disregard this mention here of mine. Welcome to our big little community and thanks for sharing.Please share some more of your 7 or more years a poet. Sincerely, Melissa Lundeen.
