A strong woman is a woman in whose head
a voice is repeating, I told you so,
ugly, bad girl, bitch, nag, shrill, witch,
ballbuster, nobody will ever love you back,
why aren’t you feminine, why aren’t
you soft, why aren’t you quiet, why
aren’t you dead?
This is my page spread reflection on the second stanza of Marge Piercy's poem, For Strong Women.

I love this poem (and others by Marge Piercy). Thank you for your artistic reflections on this piece. Any chance this collection will be for sale?
Thanks, Kasey for your comment. Sorry, but this is not for sale.
