“There are some men who will always prefer to deal with another man, any man, rather than a woman ... I can see him struggling to place me: I'm not married to him, clearly I'm not his mother, I didn't go to school with his sister and I'm sure as hell not going to go to bed with him.

“Everyone wants a strong woman
until she actually stands up,
flexes her muscles,
projects her voice
Suddenly, she is too much.
She has forgotten her place.
You love those women
as ideas, fantasies
Not as breathing, living humans
threatening to be even better
than you could ever be.”
