A poem for International Women's Day, "New Frontiers," by Joan Ellen Gage

NEW FRONTIERS

I have to say that

the women I meet these days, as

peers and otherwise,

are smart and savvy.

They are really out there

breaking up the male empire

and enjoying it.

This sisterhood of women

is such a positive force, and

whether we realize it, or

not, the truth is,

women are changing

their worlds, and

it is apparent to them.

Even if the rest of the planet cannot

see this alteration,

It does not matter. It is

our own perception that does.

Women have visualized

a new reality, and made it theirs,

they now operate within this new order.

We are cowgirls of

the new frontier,

Making and breaking up rules,

we ride bareback into

dangerous deserts, canyons,

and boardrooms,

while twirling our iPhones.

And, when we wear our silver spurs,

they haven’t got

a chance!

From the book Water Running Downhill,

by Joan Ellen Gage
