“For some reasons of reason, it is overwhelmingly apparent that the female brain does not rival a man’s brain when it comes to math and science.”
so she grabbed a telescope
to see
what kind of god

for her
what kind of idiot
savant
would phrenologize uterus
with iQ
in a respectable scholarly journal

that my tax dollars didn’t pay for
the only part
that is free
Lady soldier
they will rename movies after you
An Officer and An Elegance
I want to...
