Kathleen, The World Needs You
You are foolish game with a stupid haircut
Too much makeup
You've got a good
heart
So big you can barely contain it in that slinky dress
'Slut' is not a word I like to use
It's not my place to judge your fun
But that's what they thought as they laughed at your jokes
Smiled and bought you drinks
'Prey', they thought
Kathleen, the world needs you
Show them Grrl Power again
& when you return to the scene
Will you wear a bra?
Will you be folksy or airbrushed or waifish or ska?
Could you turn around once so we could see the new threads?
Try rolling your eyes back in your head
Your sisters all across the land will be so proud
Show those kids what feminism's all about
& as long as you don't act too smart
& they can define just what you are
If you just wiggle it, just a little bit
You'll be a Wonder Woman
Too much makeup
