Slam Poem

You have to be skinny

But not too skinny 

Guys like a girl with a little meat on the bone

Be smart

But play dumb 

Guys don’t want a girl that is smarter than him 

Cover up 

And don’t be a tease 

If you don’t want sex then your a prude

But if you have sex your a whore

If a guy has lots of sex he is a hero 

So why can’t I be? 

Accept the cat calling it was a compliment 

Oh yes, 

And accept his public proposal so he doesn’t get embarrassed 

Are you sure he raped you?

Because if you accuse him of this you could ruin his life 

Kicked off sports teams, no scholarships

Imagine your life being ruined like that 

“Is it shark week” 

“Looks like someone is on their period” 

Red

Covering the bright white toilet bowl

Red

In the bottom of the nice lace panties 

Bright red clumps of my uterus wall gushing out 

It looks like Cardi B at the Met Gala in 2019

Alabama,

Arkansas,

Idaho,

Kentucky, 

Louisiana,

Mississippi,

Missouri,

Oklahoma,

South Dakota,

Tennessee,

Texas

11 states 

In 11 states I could go to jail for getting an abortion 

In 11 states I don’t own my uterus 

Take your political opinions 

Shove them up your ass

Make sure it hits the spot 

And keep them out of my uterus

I am a woman for god sake 

A woman raised you 

Let you suck on her breast

Carried you for 9 months in her womb 

The spend hours pushing your tiny body out of her own 

And now you abandon that 

Making every woman’s life miserable
