the best part is when she laughs
because she is just so above the men
and above the women who whine
pick me
to the men incapable of loving
what they do not respect
she’s like how I want to be
but am too prideful to actually be like
she’s a lion
that fucking goddess
so un-American
I want to be like her
her laugh is disarming
they don’t deserve the dignity
an argument would give them
-Wash and chop up cauliflower into bite-sized pieces. Pat dry and set aside.
-Whisk together 3/4 cup flour, 2 tsp garlic, 1 tsp paprika, 1 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp pepper.
-Add in almond milk slowly and stir until a doughy texture forms. It should be thin enough to cover the cauliflower but thick enough that it sticks and doesn’t run off.
-Batter the chopped cauliflower and place on a pan lined with parchment paper.
-Bake at 450 degrees for 20 mins.
-Take out of oven and toss in buffalo sauce until completely covered, then place back on the pan. Careful! It’s hawt!!
people say the devil has a sharp tongue
well maybe
the devil is just a woman with wit
that sharpens the sword of her tongue
and writes with a crystal ball point pen
that must be what they thought in Salem
when witchcraft was a more reasonable excuse
than god creating woman with a brain
when all she came from
was the rib of Adam
written by man
maturity
is looking at your hero
and seeing why people don’t like her
and understanding
that what people don’t like
is exactly what you admire
and exactly what makes you alike
and realizing
if you respect your hero
for the reasons people tear her down
then you can love yourself
in the same way
if you’re a woman who says it’s easier
to have daughters than sons
let me ask you something
is it easier to teach a woman how not to be raped
than to teach a man
how to not rape?
I suppose the most difficult medicine to swallow
is one’s own pride
and it doesn’t help
if the rest of the world won’t help you
and either way
the loss of innocence is difficult to grieve
but one of those situations
only acknowledges one’s loss of innocence
some mothers care more about their own healing
than the healing of their daughters
but in the end it feels like there’s nothing to fix
if you can’t see what’s broken
if you’re a woman who says it’s easier
to have daughters than sons
I hate you
but probably not as much as you hate yourself
