Message to Men


There's things i don't want to hear

 Don't you see?

"shawty got a big ol butt"

That don't work for me.

I hear you screaming obscenities.

I hear you calling me out my name.

I am not inferior.

Treat me the same.

I just want respect.

Greet me with my name.

Then maybe we can talk.

My attitude might change.
