Before You Read: This is more of a spoken word type of poem and it has a bit of call and response in it. So dont get confused and try to keep up :)
My ladies: need to understand that all you see is NOT what you need to be. Ashmed to be you. Wearing what everyone else is wearing. Doing what everyone else is doing. Exchanging your morals for a "cute" dude. Pumping your body full of things that dont matter much once you're gone. Feeling like you're not worthy of all that is sane, good, beautiful, and worthy of a god or goddess. Competing to stay in the game of what dude's attention can i earn next. Unwilling to educate yourself for the fear of being too smart. What does too smart mean anyway? But they say you can never have too many clothes,shoes, accessories, etc. Not realizing that a REAL man wants an intellectual female that can hold her own. Unlike those material things and your boyfriend of the week that can be gone in the blink of an eye, if you have an education it aint goin anywhere.
You dont even knw what the meaning or what it looks like to be a lady.
"Well damn maybe i never got taught."
You dont need to be taught, teach yourself.
"Dont you think I tried."
Not hard enough, you cant tell me that you think there is anything right about sweatin in a club wearin nothin but your draws, a bra and a vest.
"It aint lady like but I was cute tho."
Cute, thats not cute by any means. Besides if you see yourself as a woman dont you think cute is out of your legue?
"No."
Well maybe you should focus on being beautiful. You know you can pride yourself and dress like you have some sense of sophistication. That beauty dosent only have to be preserved for prom, funerals, or when you've put in a job application.
"Dont nobody wanna wear heels all day"
But you'll wear them all night to a club or party, and who said you had to wear heels. Heels arent the only thing that can make you look good, you make you look good.
All in the camera for facebook and other sites. Titties hanging all out, and for what? to draw a little attention. There are other ways to get attention. Positive attention at that! To tell the truth some of these females are unknowingly broke hoes, just making pornos/porno magazines, posting them on the internet and not getting paid for it. No im not saying try to get paid for it. Im saying stop doing it. If you feel like you need to get naked for the world wide web, then you might as well walk around naked all the time.
If you sit down and pay attention, Im not trying to bash anyone. Im just putting everything they do in writting. Maybe if they see it in black and white, itll simplify it all. Maybe they'll understand that some where inside, they have a crucial piece of themselves that is missing or maybe just wounded. Ladies, dont be so willing to give yourself to someone that is only willing to take from you. If it takes for you to be alone to realize that your are valuable, then so be it. When its all said and done and no ones around you have these things: you, your love for yourself, your dignity, your respect, and your education.
