Intertwined within the constructs of power and privilege,
It represents itself through the uneven distributions of wealth. Cast within the shadow of homophobia,
It represent itself through toxic constructs,
that work to use fear and humiliation
as tactics toward emasculation.
It represents itself through domination and conquest,
and the control it requires over women.
Afraid and vulnerable,
Mother Nature calls out,
countinusouly raped and pilliaged by the white man. Together they are powerful,
but as individuals they are weak,
as they thirst for more blood
to quench their insatiable thirst for attention.
Exclusion and escape
being the dominant methods towards
their submission of embarrassment.
Outside of men,
it represents itself through
restraint, punishment, and repression –
while the unjoined sense of unbelonging
marks her with social violence and opprobrium. It represents outdated regiments,
that use desire and sexuality
as tools towards social conformity.
Targeting the female psyche,
it reproduces by positioning itself through
the misogyny hidden within femaleness,
as it begins to permeate
through the constructs of gender.
It represents itself through us all.
We burrow in shame.
But only the shameless
find the acceptance and recognition it’s seeking.
