I came across a woman who was insulting another fellow woman, telling people to stay away from her. I'm not generalizing women, this goes out to her.


A Woman

Oh Woman!
You beautiful beautiful creature,
Your grace and spirit have been,
Marred by jealousy.

Throughout the ages,
You stood up,
When you were put down,
You yelled,
When a hand was put,
Over your mouth.

Oh Woman!
You beautiful beautiful creature,
Alas! It was no one but you,
Who went around,
Bad-mouthing your gender,
When your insecurity rose up.

Did you forget,
How much it hurt,
When people called you names?
Yet you didn't think twice,
Putting your fellow woman,
To shame.

Oh Woman!
You beautiful beautiful creature,
Just when did you end up,
Being such a hypocrite?

No mater the gender - jealously - envy - ugliness
their twin heads - bark

People have different ideas on feminism and there is a spectrum of variation. This a very good piece from a very good vantage point.
