Being a Wow

Oh yes we are!
We run the world.
Men’s good ideas
Came from us.

We own it!
Men hate it.
They keep us down,
Well, they try.

We birth the world!
We’re as resilient as the wind.
We do the planning,
Seed them in men.

We’re wise!
We see how to create.
We’re powerful.
We control our bodies.

Our minds are our own.
We think ahead.
Minutely, succinctly
We are anticipators.

WOMEN ARE WOW!
