The Women in My Family Are Bitches
The women in my family are bitches.
Cranky bitches.
Stuck up bitches.
Customer service turned sour bitches.
Can I help you? bitches.
Next in line bitches.
I like this purse 'cause it makes me look mean bitches.
Can you take a picture of my outfit
full length,
get the heels in bitches.
I always wear heels to la fiesta
I never take them off bitches.
All men will kill you bitches.
All men will leave you anyway, bitches.
You better text me when you get home okay bitches.
Pray before the baby comes bitches.
Pray before the plane takes off bitches.
She has my eyes, my big mouth and my fight, bitches.
Sing to the scabs on her knees when she falls down bitches.
It's okay not to be liked bitches.
Give abuelita bendiciones bitches.
The vengeful, violent,
pissed,
prissed,
and polished.
Lipstick stained on an envelope,
I'll be damned if I'm compliant bitches.
The what did you call to us? What did you say to us? What's that kind of love called again?
Bitches.
