Mr Cheap shot

Mr Cheap Shot 

Mr Big Shot 

 

Mr diminish 

Mr Spin 

Mr can’t write his own things

Mr why are you looking at me 

I didn’t do anything 

 

Mr I am sorry she feels that way

So invalidating 

Mr turn the focus back her 

And I don’t know what you mean 

He tries to other me in different ways 

 

Not for armchair experts 

Who wish to smear 

And categorise away

The travesties against me 

 

When they silence a victim 

It only exacerbates things 

 

When they listen to jealousies and enemies 

And wind them up with the things they did for me 

 

It makes them say incendiary things 

Because they bae for fame saying 

We don’t want to see her have any good thing

 

We can’t stand it when people know she is Better than us 

The she dominated and were we underlings 

 

If she’s paid she will have more money than we do 

Can’t we confiscated all her fruit all her good toil 

 

It is right to pay a woman for her work 

If the free hookers want a payday

That’s not my thing not my business 

Men who touch them 

Become forever worthless 

 

They said to make a target out of me

When you should have been suspecting them

And the gay man you deployed and destruct

Said all his views were mine

 

And not those of the spiritual woman you have met

Coerced me to say them day after day as a part of his harassment plan

The creepy man I called security on

Why send a creepy man who wanted to sleep with you?

 

You paid for criminal things after stealing

Look at how that looks for you

You take several hundred lines

Where is your degree in poetry ?

Did you write like that in your band ?

 

What to take my creditability, creativity, spirituality and murder it all

Take a good hard look at what you paid for

The deplorable things he said about people

He said you needed me weak and feeble

 

So I wasn’t strong enough and had to let it slide

But academic fraud is significant

As is threatening me to not become a journalist or writer

 

I am not interested in participating in the beauty olympics 

It is a sexist male construct 

Women who choose to be the centre of attention are 

Narcissistic navel gazers 

 

The beauty olympics are for sycophants 

And women use it to reign 

Instead of doing lasting things 

 

If the excuse is to wait for me to look pretty

Every time I am slim you don’t help me

And if you want me to dress in designer clothes

Why did you take away my livelihood and the money I should have earned from my words

 

Every female deserves to be paid for her work

What a waste of my time it was knowing you

If you are waiting for pretty you won’t see it until the grave

The beauty olympics are for silly women

With little else going for them 

 

Internalised misogynists 

Who need to be told they are pretty 

And be feted and worshiped 

And very few women last 

 

Or get to the levels of admiration for their looks that they court for themselves 

And they choose their men for attention 

Inferior to every creative woman
