Poetess

Poetess  (for akka b ~ and me)

I am a Poetess
I am a girl
Words hard to say, I’m afraid
I fantasized about being a boy
Having truck toys
Be Big Chief instead of Squaw all the time
Live in forts
Report war struggles
Climb
It would have made all the difference, I’m sure
if I had fished Gaviota’s shore
Danced on rocks
instead of twirling on music boxes,
wearing sausage hair locks
I wanted a crew cut
But
accepted my position as a girl
Weak
They say I didn’t speak
Mute in a way,
but cute
until I grew up
threw up music boxes
and ballerinas who twirl
I am a Poetess
I am a girl
