Middle-Aged White Woman (Free verse) by Dovina

Maybe it’s time. You look at me and see a symbol of conservative acts that hurt you. My kind abused your kind. Now with your freedom, your authority, your power, it’s time for retribution. Go ahead, ignore me, don’t hire me belittle me in your verse skip over me at your readings. My ancestors did it to your ancestors. You have the right. It’s a new experience for me, that’s all. Maybe it’s time.

In the interest of full disclosure, I don't actually think there is a correlation between being simpleminded and whining.

I've encountered stupid stoics & intelligent stoics, stupid whiners, and intelligent whiners. I tend to get labeled a diva myself, ie, someone who sometimes whines aggressively but who's whining is generally tolerated because of a high level of efficacy.
