Wonder Woman Wonder Woman
All the world is waiting for you…

Waiting for me?
Why can’t they do for themselves?

It’s that woman’s work is never done rigmarole.
The power I possess is more than my satin tights.

Little girls were inspired –
that they could rope truth.

The tragic irony was the lasso
was meant as allegory for feminine charm!

Yet little girls grow – made dizzy from spinning.
Patriarchy literally made them spew.

Eight decades and change
I still inspire them to be resilient and powerful.
