Hymn AR15 #endgunviolence
O beautiful for piercing cries, for siren waves of sound, for blue and red light, flashing beams above the school yard ground. America! America! We praise the NRA. Our children die, we shrug and sigh. It's the price we choose to pay. O beautiful for congress proved their complete lack of care Who more than country, money loved just send a thought and prayer. America! America! The founders still would say, How dare children's deaths try to transgress on arms we bear today! O beautiful for patriot dream which must include a gun. Freedom can't exist in the impotence of men who don't need one. America! America! Guns are a god to thee Deny the soul; no gun control. Only death can prove we're free.

Poem: Women are not here for men. I know that's tough to hear. Eve and the rib are a myth, and that might cause you fear. Because if women don't exist for men you're not entitled to one. And your status among the boys no longer on a woman can be hung. Women are not here for men. It is a foundational truth. And while you may not believe it you are currently reading the proof.

"I Take My Joy in Pieces"
#poetry #poems #booksky #booktok #childlesscatlady
Poem: I take my joy in pieces Any size will do My country is crumbling But I can find a few Portions of joy from the love That still lives here in us Call me silly or corny I won't make a fuss See, before we beat the fascists We have to beat despair So I'll find pieces of joy And spread it everywhere

"If I've Faded"
#poetry #poems #childlesscatlady #booksky #booktok #feminism
Poem: If I've faded from the center of your mind's heart, pull me back through the clouds and tell me you're still here, at the end of this telephone fog. I'll be doing the same, calling your name into our distance, pulling you to me to feel some invisible intimacy

Meet Addy, by Connie Porter, was the first American Girl book I ever read. If you're a teacher or parent wanting to ensure your kids learn the truth about American slavery, I recommend this book.

Sometimes, you just gotta let go. Find inspiration in the groundbreaking poem, The Day I Gave No F_cks.
