audrey
marie munson
american
venus
the
most visible woman
you’ve
never seen
years
ago, silent screen
new
york nude statues
her
pose
institutionalized
where
she died
diagnosis:
crazy
but
i imagine
she
was what this world
would
not tolerate
a
woman with a mind of her own
after
all she never married
never
became a possession
even
though she was the one
every
man wanted to possess
i
often think christ
knew
the true hearts of the men
who
dragged the woman before him
if
she was caught
in
the very act of adultery
wouldn't
that mean
a
man was on the scene?
only
the woman
was
deserving of death
for
sex
whore
the
man was probably
at
the market to score
a
leg of lamb
to
bring home for his wife
to
cook
now
we have a female
running
for president
isn’t
it evident
women
are now equal?
today’s
women are a sequel
to
audrey
as
john lennon sang
“woman
is the nigger of the world”
and
like those men long ago
ready
to cast stones
the
heart of males hasn’t changed
equality
is a fable
unless
a woman strives to be
a
pleasure for a man
she
is labeled
oh
audrey
as
don mclean said about vincent
you
deserved better
you
died fettered
because
you dared to speak
instead
of accepting your mouth
was
only good for one thing
