The Election Day

Election Day, in Washington's time,  

It was simple and reliable. 

Now, some centuries later, 

Women's rights are in danger. 

Yet,

A criminal is up to the poll, 

A woman running against. 

The choice was somehow obvious. 

The Criminal won. 

Oh, how America is failing me, a woman, that is too young to know the rights she never had.

  • Hating School

    I grew up hating school

    Feeling self-conscious because I was "un-cool"

    Just because I got pulled out of the room

    This feeling, however, never went away

    Through school and friends, it has always been that way
