Ranting to Be HeardA Poem by Yemaya TheresaBecause I am Brown. Because I am a Wombmyn. Because I am not Formally Educated. Because I am Fat. Because I am Disabled, Because I am Poor. What I say has No merit, No worth. I talk too much. I am too opinionated. I am too Manic. I am too Emotional. I am Being a B***h. I don't know what I am talking about so I should keep my mouth closed. I speak but no one hears. I raise my voice but no one listens. I scream but no one cares. I cry they walk away. I Am Brown. I Am Wombmyn. I Educate Myself. I Accept & Love my Body. I Am Not my Defects. I Am not my Bank Book. My words do have Merit & Worth. I Speak my Mind I have the Right to my Opinions. My Spirit is Wild. My Emotions are my Strength. I Am Strong. I will Not be Quiet!
