Who am I? (A woman) and where do I fit in the adult world?
(I wasn’t meant to fit in. I was meant to shake the very
foundations of “normal”)
(like every woman) born into the shadow of the bomb, into the
dawn of Aquarius.
All (our) houses (become) haunted by the person (one)
might have been.
Wraiths and phantoms creep under (our) carpets.
Life is but a procession of shadows…we embrace them so
eagerly,
and see them depart with such anguish.
(This) inexorable flow of the river of time,
(our) deep disappointment in relationships that…
failed.
Leading a human life is a full-time occupation
(In a sexist society) …the most despised
and dispensable person…is an older woman.
(I) ha(ve) no value or purpose to men.
One day (daughter,) it will be your turn to play the role of
the woman
who took the back seat, waiting for equality,
politely fading away while achieving fuck all.
I am frightened of things staying the same.
