It’s Women’s History Month here in the United States ~ one during which this poet enjoys offering her tongue-in-cheek series on the lives of ladies who have helped to make modern life as we know it possible for all of us.

Infamous Laydeez ~ Don’t Let it Phase Ya, Aspasia!
Hie Hence, Ye Harpies!
O what a juicy tale, hee hee
Asapsia sunk in harlotry
Since it isn’t even true
That cannot be what’s causing you
To’ard her such dour face to keep
In her elegant shade you be
Accusing her of being cheap
When what she really is, is free

Until removal of the stalker/targeter/vandal/arsonist following her allows her to approach any landlord ~ even for a private parking space ~ and to begin once again to create professional connections and to rebuild her life, this poet presently lives homeless and at a fraction of her nation’s poverty level ~ still working seven days a week to contribute to her society, however.
