A Woman's Ultimatum by A.T.Myrie

I do not accept your conclusion
I will ignore your diagnosis
You think I am mental
And in a state of severe psychosis

Because I refuse to adhere
To your rules
And your judgment of me
I am not your doormat
Or a convenient brood mare

I am a woman
Proud and free
And you are no longer
The master of me

I will choose my own path
Whether you like it or not
I am phenomenal and unique
And you should bow down
And kiss my feet

Because without me
There is no future generation
'Without my womb
Your legacy turns to dust
I am the giver of life
You are just a slave to lust

So before you sneer at my gender
And patronize me even further
Tread softly on my feelings
Because they won't be
Appeased by 'sexual healing'

Respect me as your equal
And give me my due
Because at the end of the day
You need me as much as I need you
