The Power In My Hips
I grin and nod in agreement
while expletives
form a soul train line in my head
I wasn't in the mood for arm wrestling
besides I don't want you to know
how strong I am
that will just make you puff up
like a frightened lynx
it's much easier to acquiesce
and let white flags
dangle from my earrings
as I plan my next move
to overthrow the king
and rule
the
world
