Feminist Heaven

One.

                            When I have died and gone to

Feminist Heaven, Frida Kahlo, Rosa Parks, Sojourner Truth

                            My fellow sisters of earned blessing will meet me at the gate and say

Do Not Be Afraid

                             You can wear whatever you want here.

Two.

God

                            Calls his daughters forward.

                            When they tell him what his sons have done

He does not ask how long there skirt was.

Three.

                            When you bring your boyfriend

home

                            He will shake your

Mothers

                            Hand, while

Dad,

                            He cooks dinner

Four.

Your blood

                            Will not send him home

                            Willy simply make him grab a

Heating pad, and

Smile.

Five.

                          When something needs fixing,

God

                          Will not send a handyman

                          He will throw you a

Drill

                       And say

Sons, retreat

For what I have created

Needs no assistance.
