Shell of A Woman

In a homeostatic state
Perfection waits
As Utopia sighs
And thrives
From winged bees
Cooling the beehives
Of life
Making everything
Just right

In the
Justice League
She is forever
Enshrined
In these walls
As the decline
In her mind
Causes humanity's
Tears to fall
At her peak
Barriers fell at
Her feet
She soared high
Above the clouds
Proud
Towering above
The skyscrapers
Of men
As she transcends
Her reign comes
To an end

She was a Wonder
Woman
Sexy, feminine and
Strong
Helped fix what was
Wrong by
Reshaping gender
Roles by
Breaking the mode
Showing the value
Of womanhood
Could and should
Get equality
In humanity
By deciphering
The code
That men still
Hold onto today
In some way
Shape or form
Now at the height
Of her decline
She no longer
Performs
Sheroic feats
She sweeps
From beneath
The feet
The crumbs
Of defeat
Though she
Remains meek
Cleaning
Up at a fast food
Joint
The point is
No remembers
The retired
Sheroes
Until their final
Steps are made
To the grave
She may get a
Fake salute
Sprinkles of truth
And trinkets from
A silent parade

She was statuesque
Picturesque
A Goddess, a deity
Aphrodisiac beauty
Then he came and
Changed the game
He performed surgery
Causing her flaws
To scar
Because he didn't
Like what he saw
His tongue gashed her
And slashed her
Better and deeper
Than any blade, made
He punishes at will
Though his fist
Remain still
All that remains
Is the pain and

The Shell of A Woman.......

This speaks of how easily it is to get sucked into the lies and dreams, despite the strength inside. Nicely voiced. You have so much new work! Wow.
