“When The Woman is King (Sonnet)
When the woman is king,
no mother goes without leave,
no dreamer goes without choice,
no queer goes without dignity.
In a world run by women,
no gender is second gender -
in a world run by the indigenous,
no ethnicity is the second race.
Before the human race becomes equal,
first the dehumanized must reign supreme -
when the woman is king, that's the
last time the world will ever need a king.
When the woman is king, not queen, not princess,
but the absolute monarch of the kingdom of apes,
that's the beginning of actual human evolution.”
― Nazmahal: Palace of Grace

“The female warrior knows how to fight without violence. She knows when not to raise her sword, but instead hold up her heart. Her shield is not a defense against others but a shelter for all.”
