Being a female isn't a breeze - Villanelle
Being a female isn’t a breeze
but I love who I am and I try
to do as I damn well please.
Life dictated by Maxis
and tampons—I’d rather die
Being a female isn’t a breeze.
Marketed products to pull, wax, and tweeze
simply to please your eye?
I think I’ll do as I damn well please.
Slut, whore, bitch, and tease,
cat-calls instead of just “hi”—
Being a female isn’t a breeze.
Into size 0 jeans I have to squeeze?
You don’t like the size of my thigh?
Too bad! I’ll do as I’ll damn well please.
My dreams are as vast as the seas
For them, I hold my head up high.
But for some females, it still isn’t a breeze
to do as they damn well please.
