IN THE DRIVER’S SEAT
by Patricia MacKay

Stare as much as you like
you don’t intimidate me.
I’m woman emancipated.
I’m a woman who is free.

I am free to be beautiful.
I am free to feel satiated
in all things I desire
without being negated. 

I am a sensual being
who is sexy and smart.
I am in charge of my life.
I am in charge of my heart. 

You say you like my pearls
and my dress and my car.
You say I’m as alluring
as a silent picture star. 

Stop- I’m a discriminating sort
and if you want to know me
you’ll have to prove yourself
then… who knows …we’ll see.
