IMAGINE ME AS WOMAN

Imagine Me as Woman

Written By Lisandro Miguel Infante
.

I am a woman.
I move my hips, curvy and with power.
I speak openly, not with curt responses,
-But with sexually-charged ideation.

I am a woman.
Watch me pounce on you
-Without second thought.
The stigma of yesterday

Is so, so gone.

I’m laughing.
I’m crying.
I’m freer.
I am a woman.

I am a phenomenal woman.
You cannot blame me.

:) you would enjoy yourself

You really think so. ,,lAZARUS

yes, you'd be dangerous in all the good ways
-------
you sound like a man a can
you describe the body and not the soul
If you close your eyes and think about a woman
you seem to see just what you need

Read the last line:
"You cannot blame me."

The poem was emphasizing that I was still a man imaging myself as a woman. And I did mention the soul by stating, " I am a phenomenal woman,"
Which is a line from a famous poem about a man not being able to conquer a woman's soul. You should read more into the piece, and I also mentioned other things you convienently left out of your criticism.

Too bad! I thought this one would definitely lead to a discussion on feminism and modern stereotypes still held of women.,,lAZARUS

The poem I wasreferring to is:
"Phenomenal Woman" - Maya Angelou
You should read it some time.

When you sign your name to a poem or piece of writing you are telling all who read it that it is yours, that you created the thoughts expressed. If you are using someone elses thoughts or words you should say so before you declare your part complete. Not later when your work is being critized.
This is a place where we can try our creative writings out on strangers in the hope for honest and thoughtful comments. Does using other peoples "lines" or even thought lines help anyone?

Are you for real???

the only real thing about any of this shit is that it stinks. the would be poet ( singular ) is so full of shit he can.t get out of his own way, then there are the followers. oh ! you are such a great talent.. why thank you i try. you can tell this is real by the way it continues to suck month after month. who will say the cool thing the newest put down. whenever anyone sugests differently a new fool is found while the writers of the SHITTY poems keep on pooping.
