What is it about being born with a penis that makes you such a dick,
I was raised to be a nurturer, I assure you it isn't an attribute of my second X chromosome,
What were you raised to be? A hunter? A gatherer? A purloiner of low-hanging fruits?
My 'no's were sifted out of me early, just like your empathy was ironed out of you,
My mother, she thrust upon me the unrelenting urge to acquiesce,
Your mother, she gifted you her universe, you at the very centre,
For too long now, you have felt like the light, like the source of all gravity,
Let me shatter that illusion just a bit,
Just like you did my trust, pushing past needs and thighs just the same,
Penetrating, Penetrating, Pene-fucking-traiting
What is it about being born with a penis that makes you so entitled?
Is it what makes me, a cunt, such a sucker for punishment?
A cunt you want to fuck, a cunt you want to fuck with,
Another planet to orbit you, another cooing breast to nestle in,
Another salve for your peach-like ego,
Another glutton for a life of servitude,
Serving you, who is 'blessed' with a penis
What is it about being a penis that exempts you,
From all those shackles that have disfigured my body and mind?
Who burdened me with shame? Who acquits you of all blame?
What gives you the right to ask me to hide myself, when you are the monster that hunts?
Hunts in the night and in the day, on the streets and in my home,
from my bedside and from the unknown, from childhood to menarche,
What gives you authority over the clothes I wear, the choices I make, the thoughts in my head, the words that leave my mouth, the colour I paint my skin, or the way I sin?
You say you want to protect me? You say I need you to live comfortably?
You say I need a thing with a penis?
Save me your #notallmens and your repugnance,
Save me your disdain and your benevolence,
Save me your pity and your chivalry,
You weren't born with it,
You don't need to be more man,
Any more than I need to be more woman,
You'll only be a prick with a penis,
Unless you can step up and unstrap that,
Unless you can be more than that,
That thing that makes you a dick with a penis
