Mankind
One small step for man one giant leap for man kind
they had stepped on the moon
But see I am not not one of the so I will not say we
mankind. is not humanity.
cause last time I checked does not and will not EVER include me.
Mankind created the wheel and discovered fire
woman created man
On the list of great inventions that ones never mentioned
said women was made from the rib of man
but what came first the chicken or the hen
Mankind
I would love to thank my forefathers
but they wouldn't have given me choice
cause they didn’t believe in my body vote or voice
Mankind
I would like to thank my foremothers
but I don’t know who they are
see they left them out of my history books
as if they hadn’t come as far
fighting silent war against mankind
that was far less than kind to them.
There breast kept them intellectual prisoner
thoughts were as shameful as a uterus
Mankind
created the car, the house, and th the glass ceiling.
Mankind
continues define my life in playboy magazine and dishwashing commercials
Mankind
who repeatedly tells me I should be seen and not heard
Mankind
Who mad it legal for a pharmacy
deny a female plan B
a condom costs 2 dollars when
female choices are 50
our choice isn’t part of the plan
prevention through contraception is up to a man
It’s time to fight the man.
The man we call government.
The same mankind that tells us our bodies are a product of democracy
and what what we choose to do with them is up for discrepancy
as if our we are property
property old men can vote on.’
Man kind you may be our government but I’m my bodies president and don’t forget it.
Among man kind have sat in the white house
there are few who I admire
first lady for years but never for hire
A woman would be too sensitive, I’ve even heard PMS,
America likes to pretend
that my ovaries make us more vulnerable than
men
Organs that produced them, somehow reduce us.
We ignore what we’ve seen time and again
It goes both ways this so called weakness
ask mr. clinton, then ask his penis
I have met good men, they do exist
that not what it meant by this
but I’m tired of testosterone defining my life
I demand man and woman
don’t define me wife.
I will never be a police man a fire man or even a mail man so please
don’t tell me I can
I am what I am, so please include me.
It’s not mankind it’s humanity.
