Get Published on Female First

If you said I was as beautiful as this flower

I’ve plucked from the earth to kill,

Would you think I was a monster?

Or amazingly beautiful still?

I haven’t the patience for infinity

I tend to lose interest in sublime

But give me some room to run around

And I’ll show you a lady with a rhyme.

You can spew loving words from your mouth

Maybe even mean seven of them.

Not a single one will hit my ears

Because I have the innate ability to condemn.

Judge, jury, and executioner

Of everything you say.

With the ability to decipher

And a guarantee I will not stay.

There are women that would swoon

At the words a man said.

I would rather hear the wind through trees

Or the sound of nothing instead.

I would rather grab a man’s mind

Than to ever grab an appendage.

Second to that, his heart, of course

Then you have the advantage.

You needn’t ever ask if I believe what you say

Because the answer will always be “no”

Save yourself the trip to absconding

And when you feel an attraction to me, just go.
