Scales Poem by Nika McGuin

Scales

Rating: 2.9


I fear to enter the world of women
who weigh their self-worth
on the scales of society

The society where women must
shrivel, and men are urged
to magnify, as a representation
of their status, in this patriarchal world

The only measurements of true importance
are those of our souls on judgement day
at which time, the measurements of society
will be rendered useless, utter rubbish

~Nika
