Misogynistic views are outdated and overused.
Oppression is your claim to life.
Taking all that makes you insecure will never amount;
You will never understand the woes and pain of being a ‘her’

Take what you can and leave what you must;
Chastity is only required by she.
For a beastly foe has come for you.

The misogynist is closely in view.
No matter how they pummel you down;
You will never succumb to staying on the ground.
For the words, they say, like snow do fall.

Melting time is in season;
For the ground, you walk is warm with power.
The others are empty like the snow that holds no form,
The words of a misogynist are nothing but a passing storm.
