Guest post by my fierce poetic English Sister Ali Jean Bee:

just posted this to the 'we acknowledge a war on women' anti woman page....wonder if they'll get the point

“Burn the witch,” they shouted as they burned the local women
Herbalists and midwives, seen as something less than human
“Burn the witch,” they shouted, as those who’d not obey,
Who used their voice to question, were carried right away
To torture and to horrors to painful fiery death
For speaking up for women for working for the women
For being just a woman, till their final anguished breath

“Burn the witch”, they shouted as they took our rights away
“Burn the witch”, they shouted, “We don’t need you anyway
You are cis, you’re our oppressors we are women, you are witches
We are female, we are special, anything we do is oh so special
All our needs are oh so special. You are terfs and you are bitches

You’re not speaking for all women, we are special, with our feelings
You are wicked and inhuman, we are so much more appealing
With our lady dicks and fake boobs and our soft and gentle voices
Your men all know they want us everybody wants us
All of you really want us if you were given real choices

We will stop you from your meetings we will call you names and hate you
We will lie and sneak and threaten. If you speak up we’ll berate you
We will infiltrate your groups and
we will physically attack you
And say that it was justified, you know that we are justified
Our behaviour’s always justified, when we reach out and smack you

We will not allow your writing, we will burn your books and lie
About your violence and hatred, we will force you to comply
We will threaten you with fire, as we did the hags before
We will burn you like we burned them. We will torch you like we burned them
We’re not sorry that we burned them This is war

And the women said “somethings always seem the same
But we will stand up for all women and not give in to this con game
You are male in your actions, you are male through and through
Your violence is merely. Your politics are merely
Your sex habits are just merely male entitlement shining through

We will not let our voices be silenced once again
We speak up for our mothers, our grandmothers and their pain
And we will keep on fighting and saying men cannot be us
You are men and always will be. You are male and always will be
You’re XY and always will be. There is nothing to discuss. - Ali Jean Bee
