A Beautiful Poem

A partial text of the poem that noted crackpot Ashley Judd read at the D.C. Woman's March. No rhyme. No meter. No art. Simply doggerel worthy of a NEA grant. Absolutely and unintentionally hilarious, I might add.

Quote

I am a nasty woman. I’m as nasty as a man who looks like he bathes in Cheetos dust. A man whose words are a distract to America. Electoral college-sanctioned, hate-speech contaminating this national anthem. A mustache traded for a toupee. Nazis renamed the Cabinet Electoral Conversion Therapy, the new gas chambers shaming the gay out of America, turning rainbows into suicide. Yeah, I'm a nasty woman — a loud, vulgar, proud woman.

I am nasty like my bloodstains on my bed sheets. We don't actually choose if and when to have our periods. Believe me if we could some of us would. We do not like throwing away our favorite pairs of underpants. Is your erection really more than protecting the sacred messy part of my womanhood? Is the bloodstain on my jeans more embarrassing than the thinning of your hair?

My eyes are too busy praying to my feet hoping you don't mistake eye contact for wanting physical contact. Half my life I have been zipping up my smile hoping you don't think I want to unzip your jeans.

And our pussies ain’t for grabbing. Our pussies are for our pleasure. They are for birthing new generations of filthy, vulgar, nasty, proud, Christian, Muslim, Buddhist, Sikh, you name it, for new generations of nasty women. So if you a nasty woman, or you love one who is, let me hear you say, hell yeah.

Supposedly written by some kid, but clearly by her. She just won't fess up to her poor writing skills.

It amuses me that the media apologetically describes this doggerel as a "beat poem" in order to excuse the glaring amateurism and lack of discernible talent. As if it is on par with Allen Ginsberg and Jack Kerouac, lol.

This reminded me of an open letter one of the Indian actresses wrote on Instagram during a molestation incident in southern India. I personally found it positive and powerful.

malaikaarorakhanofficial So, I went out with my girlfriends to party on the crowded streets of a Metropolitan city, they came out in large numbers and molested us...... But my safety is my responsibility so... The next time I went to a discotheque, it was enclosed and had bouncers, they came into the place and beat us up and ripped our clothes off.......But my safety is my responsibility so.... I went to a movie with a Male friend for company, they pushed me into a bus and shoved an iron rod inside my privates.......But my safety is my responsibility, so...... I went to my college, fully clad in a "decent" salwaar kameez, they caught me around a corner and squeezed my bum......But my safety is my responsibility, so...... I decided to stay at home in the comfort of my own house, they broke down the door, tied me up and videotaped the things they made me do with them.......But my safety is my responsibility, so...... I went back to live with my family feeling safe and secure with them, they were my uncles but they didn't think of me as their niece when they made me take off my clothes and have their way with me.......But my safety is my responsibility, so....... These days I sit in the bathroom, locked tight, not coming out at all. They stand on the terrace opposite to it peeking in through the bathroom window, but I don't take a bath.......because my safety is my responsibility....... Now, they have me exactly where they have always wanted me, my spirit broken, my ability to fight back gone, my will to do something destroyed.....at their mercy.....still stuck in the bathroom.....dreading the time when the knocking starts on the door as they come to get me here too.

I am that Indian Woman who can excel at sports, win medals for the Country, join the Army, become a CEO, go to the outer space and be the talk of the world.....only if I can come out of this bathroom......But my safety is my responsibility, so....

Disclaimer: Girls wearing short clothes and drinking and partying are copying the Western culture.Boys who molest them r copying the Indian culture???

The point -- there's a way and style of making your point come across to make it meaningful.

I didn't feel the same way when I read Judd's piece.

Do you not like poetry that doesn't rhyme?

Are you more of a limerick kind of guy?

My favorite poems do have a rhyme scheme. They also demonstrate meter, form, rhythm, and use figurative language. I enjoy a clever limerick, too. Who doesn't?

Ashley Judd is embarrassing to watch. It's even worse than "I don't feel noways tired." Does she know how ridiculous she sounds? It's sad, because like her as an actor and thought she would really run against Mitch McConnell.
