Reader Meet Author

X and Y

the women who
raised us from the womb
a generation ago
danced to music in rooms
laughed about The Beatles
and died of cancer

the women who
bored of being bored
by their men
men who tired of
the supremacy of sex
in pubs and foreign legions

there so much unsaid
too much it hurts to say
to vocalise makes it real
and may make it happen someday.
