In college those who’ve thought it out

join hands in crucial times, carry signs,

are dragged away in protest.

We pass out petitions, organize a civilized vigil,

return to work the next day.

When women are sterilized, have more children

than they can feed,

don’t speak the official language,

want things they see on TV,

would like to own a TV—

women who were molested as children

raped,

beaten,

harassed, which means

every last one sooner or later;

women who’ve defended themselves

and women who can’t or don’t know how

we don’t—won’t ever

rise up in arms.
