Autumn House happenings: I'm tired in my spirit.

I'm tired

not physically tired

spiritually tired

I'm tired of all these women who dont want to fight for themselves,

I'm tired of being upset on their behalf when man of all races and hues regale me with tales

of them

it feels like I am the only one fighting

and I cannot fight for you

if you don t want to fight for yourself

so many beautiful women are just reduced to a bang or a fuck.

I am tired of being upset on your behalf when these men ridicule you and call you derogatory names.

I am tired, are you not tired?

I need to rest.

A original poem By Kae-Toya Lee-Bramble
