Seas Change

Gender tide

By Paul BeckettPublished 5 years ago 1 min read

Emergency Sea-Change

575,000 square kilometres, the flood, From the shelf continental, Viking’s men rose. Long pauses before transport, tarmac, his pollution. Osmotic new tides seep, like memories prize, in attempts to persuade the dry, wetter. No ears for his rumours, persistent physical domination no more.

Ooze further, returning his tundra into her mashes, moorland, (ha) reserves where feet sank, Sandy. Makes my mouth dry thinking. Manifest Matriarchy.

Tempt our fate, let waltzing with gravitons ripple cascade. Lap gentle over walls, to welcome her bay(s). Of course, water wishes. Lunar assisted emancipation assistant. Impetus digits drop canyons remorseful, invisible inhibition extinct resources.

Yet tandem surprise. Attracted each other. No instance, perimeter carefully jarring. Rather the hump-back-bridge feeling enlarging. Repeated inflammatory, amplitudes speed, till the waves become vibration rapidly increasing. Then breaching :)

Sea levels coming. Femaleness evolution. Seen flaying emergence, clutching ruling class demon. Floodlight of power lands, sparkle with oestrogen. Drown him and his Testosterone’s dilution. The evens are beaten, the odds are succeeding. Trust me, he’s lame. His tantrum amounts to destruction abundance. We all see around us, crushing defiance.

These ruling boy-bullies play army, in playgrounds then battlefield camps. Tin soldier controllers, didactic, clean hands. Push button destructors, passed down in the line, hereditary hack yuck.

That man-child’s aggression needs breeding out now. Stop violence’s prevalence directing our shore-sign.

This age is the stage, saline metaphors aside, that we return our species to feminine minds. The conqueror is dying, his dry-poison-demise. Let symbols embellish his era of prides. Time to wash out that exponential bloating, mans carnivorous, predictor, dictated promotion.
