Harvey Weinstein’s Wake I’d like to attend,
If all the “Me Too’s” are accurate in the end
Lengthening list of perpetrators grows
For all those who lie, so too grows their nose
The sky is falling ‘cause half who hold it aloft
Are beaten down for being too soft
Have been down so long it looks “up” to us
Struck mute till Harvey’s antics allowed a good fuss
Open the window, to let out the stink
How low did you think some people could sink?
Open the window to let the truth in
Step up and welcome the brave and good men
“Women and children first” sounds noble and nice
Words to live by after throwing the rice.
Yet, in practice they seem first for sacrifice
"Rule of thumb”measured the beating twig’s size
In the animal kingdom must males display,
Beating their chests and killing their prey
Showing their tool to all so they’ll see
The lord of the tribe has the biggest wee wee?
Open the window, to let out the stink
How low did you think some people could sink?
Open the window to let the truth in
Step up and welcome the brave and good men
Learning to use our top brain over lower
Cherishing children and women? True Power!
Society’s strong as its own weakest link
My fear is too many are full of the stink
Can women ride the wave toward safe shore
Ride the crest do our best and a little bit more
Watch for dark currents that could pull us under
Will we seize our equality this time? I wonder
Open the window, let the stars wink
Knowing and nodding they bid us to think
Open the window in truth let us soak
Step up and welcome the brave and good folk
