Ask Me

Ask Me

A Poem by Vidya Bacchus
"

This pretty much speaks for itself.

"

                        Ask Me

 

If you had asked me to,

Instead of lain down the law,

We would not be here,

Like two gladiators,

Trying to behead each other.

 

I understand logic,

But when phrased like a command,

Defies my logic,

And my inner rebel takes offence,

I am yours but you do not own me.

 

You should know better ,

Than to enrage this woman,

My claws are unsheathed,

And I am spitting enough venom,

To eviscerate you on the spot.

 

I am not a damsel in distress,

Who is too naive to recognize danger,

Right now I dare anyone to test this raging harpee,

And you would be wise,

To heed the sparks shooting from my eyes.

 

And disappear from my general vicinity,

Until the storm has abated,

And the flaming inferno cooled,

And next time to save yourself,

From getting your eyebrows singed,

Ask me to, don't command me to.

You call it rebellion, I call it independence. I definitely know what you're talking about ! Nothing annoys me more than being ordered to do something, even at school, I even wrote a poem about it, as we say here in Italy "sfondi una porta aperta"(=You're breaking through an open door).
Loved it

Thank you so much my sweet friend.Yes being ordered to do something really gets me mad :)
lol, I hate to be so uncouth in my review... but all I can say is Damn right! haha, this is how every woman should respond when ordered around and not given the proper respect! Wonderful how you took your anger and vented it in words, sometimes it is better to beat a blank page than the one in front of us, at least that is what the cops say...lol :) Fantastic emotion...loved this!
