In nature's avian kingdom it is males
whose colourful plumage is on display
to attract the opposite of its species.
Nature devised a different strategy for
humans gifting the female of the species
with physical characteristics deemed of
great allure and beauty whose purpose is
to gain admiration from the male human.
In the process of designing human emotions
some were slipped in adverse to comfort
to women's overweening pride in their
gifts when males claiming property
rights instruct women to conceal their
pride of ownership revealing them to none
but themselves. This ancient humiliation
of womankind is so deeply engrained in
tribal societies intertwined with religious
convictions women are instructed it is none
but god's will they be demure and modest
obeying injunctions demeaning to their
sovereign human rights, but little does that
matter since within those cultures it is clear
and constant they have no rights, after all.
