The First Lady

by Robin M. Butts


It seemed as though I have been hated

since day one. I have been

Hated

Outdated

Castrated

And even annihilated..

By those who want to be me

Even those who are of me have adapted to this 

treachery.

Raped

Gaped

Taped

I have been

Fucked 

Sucked

and

Rud a muked

Futile efforts to drain my natural resources 

That nothing else on this earth embodies.

I was ascribed to be beautiful and irresistible

Even though daily contradictions tries to 

depredate.

All of these things may have put a small crack 

in my foundation

But never has it crumbled and fell apart at the 

hands of any one flesh

Some of these things may have tainted my soul

But...

Over the centuries it has never been conquered.
