Hello. I am dedicating this piece to Dr. Graffam. He reminded me why writing is so important and what you write about is even more so.
Thank you, Dr. Graffam.
This is for the future women (and men) and the day when a law will be put into motion and the salary gap will close.
What started out
As a notion
Turned into
A law
And was put into
Motion
Made me quite
Ecstatic
Because a
Small change
Starts the falling
Of
The Jenga Tower
And creates an
Eruption of emotions
Something seldom seen.
With love,
That runs
Deeper than the
Mississippi River
is long
I say, thank you!
Women didn't matter,
Then,
They played a
Small role
In the society
Child bearers
And caretakers
Thankfully,
Gaining the
Right to vote
And now,
Trying to
Bridge the
Salary gap
Between
Genders
Women lower
Men higher
What a
Patriarchal society
That we live in
Not Fair,
77 cents
per dollar
Same degree
Same occupation
What has this world come to?
All of the
Working women
Say
Thank you
For signing,
Hopefully we
Can readapt
And put
All of the
Inequalities
Aside
One
Small step
at a time.
Will the salary gap ever close?
