"A Cup Of Jo", By Brian37, (AKA Brian James Rational Poet on FB and @Brianrrs37)
A scrappy lady
Of the 80s
Took no guff
At the Eastland Prep school
I know it is a Fact
She was a character
But I desperatly wanted
Her to protect me
I had nothing but bullies
In real life
Need a cup of Jo
To escape my real life
To stand up to Blair
To make it obvious
The boys on my block
Stop beating me up
Men of the world
Even today
Need to learn
It really is ok
For girls and women
To lead the way
I need a cup of Jo
To make my way
I lived in isolation
In the basement
Jo wouldn't have put up
With that harrasment
Why should I care
If a female does dare
To protect a male
Or lead a nation?
Females make up
Half the world's population
A cup of Jo
Is fine with me.
