Not a Conquest or a Whore


Not a conquest or a whore,
Not a catalyst to adore,
I will lay your waste behind
I'm not your concubine or shrine

I bear not my cleavage out
No more guile and not devout
I am the source of Earthly ways
I am the curse of power swayed

Your roles of female kind
Will be erased and intertwined
With gallantry and might
No seduction nothing unrequited*

We are not sexy as you see
We create the pulse we bleed
We are not admired for
Any beauty unfortold**

We are power and if you heed
We are the new female, new breed

-E.L.F.
via Eve Featherstone

* unrequited - (of a feeling, especially love) not returned or rewarded.

** unfortold - unpredicted
