IMA SUPER WOMAN a poem by (me!) sandra, tvgp
i'm not a super woman'cuz i can do all things:
husband, house, kids
the 3 circus rings
i'm not a super woman
'cuza my prestigious career
'cuza my college degree or body premier
ima super woman
'cuz i survived thus far
from inside a l o n g, tall
tight-lidded glass jar
filled with darkness
packed with smoke
ima super woman
'cuz i didn't choke
to death.
i'm not a super woman
'cuz i can act or sing
'cuz i'm a 'triple threat'
arms with wings
ima super woman
'cuz i survived thus far
reached out for God's hand
through the tight-lidded jar
wiggled and squirmed through
a poked hole in the lid
so narrow i couldn't fit through as a kid
ima super woman
'cuz i got out the cage
cast cares to the heavens
got wiser with age
ima super woman
'cuz i learned how to live
how to say 'i'm sorry'
and when to forgive
ima super woman
'cuz i'm not phony, i'm real
i say what i mean
and mean what i feel
im on my way to super woman heaven
ima super woman
24/7.
