Belle, you nailed what I was trying to say in this poem!  

 

Many folks who've read this poem of mine have also commented on the "bitter" aftertaste.  That was not my intention.  Irony was what I was reaching for.....   

 

I do not consider myself a "Feminist" or a "Women's Libber."  When other women were striving for "equality," I rebelled!  IMO, why give up superiority for equality? 

 

Much of my Poetry is written when I have the "Blues...."  For some reason unknown to me, the Muses visit me more then, than they do when I'm euphoric.... 

 

Thank you all for your nice comments.  I'll post more of my Poetry since you appreciate it.
