Analysis of Woman Mourn
Melissa Desartis Miller 1984 (Texas)
Woman no point in mourning!
Created by a woman's void;
Tears of dread and affliction fill the atmosphere,
A helpless girl is casted out of a gestational tomb.
whacked, and forced to take a breath, she cries out,
the first announcement of many impending wounds
Woman cease those loud cries and tear!
Abuse, disregard, neglected,
tears, suffering, sweat,
told to be happy, pretty and quiet,
no one wants your intellect, laughably you work for respect,
The Bible or the institution was obliged to teach you,
your existence is for men, child-bearing and sex?
Woman just walk through the ruin of our broken world!
There is no garden, just weeds,
you are hated,
after you birth the curse of your Child's judgement
where is Adam, you still have have to plow the ground to eat,
while the man goes out and continues to plant his seeds,
with your burden trying to get substances from your breast,
you whisper, "is this ALL woman where designed for,
Woman get off your knees!
NO Wonder EVE Sinned,
manage those emotions within,
your not the only one to blame, where was ADAM?
Woman you are Forgiven.
