You have religion <br />To support you against me <br />In all we do together I can't breath <br />The air of freedom because these <br />Power relations are firmly <br />Eschewed in your favour <br /> <br />You have society <br />To back up your right to treat me <br />Worse than a beast of burden <br />In all our wanderings together my <br />Contributions are not recognised <br />It is good to be the dominant male <br />In a patriachal society where the <br />Unfair distribution of power <br />Will always favour you <br /> <br />You have the establishment <br />To encourage your worst excesses <br />When you abuse me like these <br />Sewers and hewers of wood <br />It is only kind of me to live you <br />For good and find me a real man <br />Who will love me and appreciate me <br />For the worthy woman that I am<br /><br />BrokenHeartPheko Motaung<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/power-relations/
