They Say
By Lara James

Language has become a tool of oppression
used by men to stifle womyn from succeeding.
     They Say
Changing the English language so that it is
less masculine will promote womyn's rights,
making them equal to the evil society of white-collared men.
     Meanwhile, He Says,
"I want to fill your panties with onions
and cry myself to sleep."
     Curtly She Answers,
"I will never worship the altar of your prick."
     Dear Lord,
Please save us from ourselves;
Redeem us in spite of our ignorance.
Heavenly Father, teach us as only You can.
     They Say
Being a wommon in today's society is hard.
     They Say
It's always hard when you're a perpetual victim.
     I Think
Changing the language is one of those good ideas
only feasible on paper - like Communism.
     I Think
Perpetual victims are sad people who need new coping skills.
     They Say
The English language will never change to yield a
gender-friendly utopic society, but until then
     I Choose
To take advantage of my First Amendment Right to
express my "feminist" opinion in print (like Communism),
and if you have a problem with that
     You May
Refer to me as the bytch with that damn opinion.
