History demands
A man
To get up and yell
And be swinging his hands
Making bruises
And cuts
Lesions
Burns
Telling the family whose bound to get scorned
History demands
A woman
To sit down and be quiet
Don’t break up this riot
You have no place
It’s all a disgrace
‘Maybe you deserved it’
‘Maybe you should just leave’
Demanding she follow her husband’s lead
The present demands
That men stand up
And be strong
But to cry when their sad
And don’t yell up at dad
And be sure to be nice to women
Don’t hit
Don’t yell
Don’t go out and tell
‘She’s just a lady’
‘Those scratches aren’t serious’
Those bruises on your face
Make you look
Del
Ir
Ious
The present demands women
To get up
Neuter those pigs
Take out the gap
With your own pints of blood
Don’t let them have discomfort
They don’t have the right
If our feelings are hurt
So dismiss them
Ignore them
Only trust the allies
For who else says that we’re good guys?
