#AtoZChallenge | Queens

Tulle gown
Gold crown
Camo boots
Bomber jacket

There are queens
walking all over
this world

Master women
slaying their dragons
their demons
their lazy, good-for-nothing exes

Expecting more
walking strong
feeling their skin
as exquisite
and worthy
and real

There are queens
in this world
speaking soft
talking hard
being true
living loud

These are
my queens
the women
who give
and love
and strive
for their families
for their people
for their own goals
that no man put into their heads

Queens know things all on their own.
Queens accept cause and effect.
Queens determine their womanhood,
Queens

For April, I am challenging myself to both #NaPoWriMo but also the #AtoZChallenge.
