Standing as Sisters Forever [Poem]
Wear what you want, own who you are
Measure your beauty in kindness
All of your strength is in all of your scars
Nevermind boys and their blindness
We are the Earth, ornate by birth
Makers of all who are living
Able and smart, with sight in the dark
Not for your playing or winning
Wave to the past, out of the bad
Men who treat us like we're lesser
Afraid it seems, all of us queens
Now that we're standing together
We are the strong, old and the young
Mothers and daughters together
Those who doubt us, come out and count us
We'll be standing as sisters forever
