Freedom

So we wait, with baited breath to see if there are enough of us to stand against the tide 
The waves of ignorance have been lapping at the shores
Waves of hatred, waves of anger 
Once again we've been beaten down 
Once again told our place 
We will not bow
To misogyny 
We stand!
Sisters!
We gather!
Women!
With many voices raised together we declare that we are free!
You cannot have my freedom 
I want none of your false "protection"
I am for liberty 
I am for truth 
And I have stood in the breech
Proclaiming 
Freedom!
