I want you to imagine me whispering into your ear

My voice isn’t harsh, in fact some would say that it’s sickly sweet

Certainly it seems to stick to you, clinging like a strong smell

Of jasmine and blue hydrangea

//

Oh, you’d like to know what I have to say?

Well what a surprise this is!

Just when I thought that men only wanted me

For my body

But here you are

Interested in my words, my speech, my mind

//

I want you to imagine me whispering into your ear

I ate the patriarchy
