Women Warriors 2
Get away from her you bitch - Ripley
Idealists foolish enough to throw caution to the winds have advanced mankind and have enriched the world. -Emma Goldman
You're terminated fucker. - Sara Connor
The political arena leaves one no alternative, one must either be a dunce or a rogue. - Emma Goldman
I'm gonna kick your ass , - Max Guevara (Dark Angel)
A preoccupation with the next world signals pretty clearly an inability to deal credibly with this one. - Quell
Bored now . - (Bad)Willow
What is an anarchist? One who accepts the responsibility of choice - Odo
Thank God we're hot chicks with superpowers. - Faith
If voting changed anything, they'd make it illegal. - Emma Goldman
I suppose Mother warned you about women like me? - Emma Peel
The accumulation of profit is like constipation within an organism. It leads only to disease and death. - Odo
It's mercy, compassion, and forgiveness I lack. Not rationality. - Beatrix Kiddo
I am much of my muchness! - Alice
A child free from the guilt of ownership and the burden of economic competition will grow up with the will to do what needs doing and the capacity for joy in doing it. It is useless work that darkens the heart. The delight of the nursing mother, of the scholar, of the successful hunter, of the good cook, of the skillful maker, of anyone doing needed work and doing it well—this durable joy is perhaps the deepest source of human affection and of sociality as a whole. - Odo
‘I drank to drown my pain, but the damned pain learnt how to swim’ -Frida Kahlo
and
‘feet? why do i need them if i have wings to fly’
You may be immortal but I can still do damage. How’d you like to spend eternity in 5 pieces? -Xena
It’s strange… The one I love most in all the world and the one I hate look exactly the same. -Xena
“I am not afraid…I was born to do this.” -Joan of Arc
“One life is all we have and we live it as we believe in living it. But to sacrifice what you are and to live without belief, that is a fate more terrible than dying.” - Joan of Arc
“The stormtroopers had tied the Jewish people up to massive wheels,” she later recounts. “They were rolling the wheels along, and the stormtroopers were whipping the Jews. I stood there and thought, ‘I don’t know what I’ll do about it, but if I can do anything one day, I’ll do it.’ And I always had that picture in my mind, all through the war.”- Nancy Wake “The Mouse”
“If you send up a weather vane or put your thumb up in the air every time you want to do something different, to find out what people are going to think about it, you’re going to limit yourself. That’s a very strange way to live.” - Jessye Norman
Musicians have great arms, but it doesn't mean they can hold me- Aeron Maccloud
She Saved The World.
A Lot. - Buffy
I end this with one of my favourite warrior poets-
Bravo, excellent collage littered with passion, rage, duty, and intelligence, very refreshing feminist wave of spirited words. Loved women warriors 1 as well and often reflect back what you expressed inside of it. To me, women are tremendously passionate and I feel that their anatomy is symbolic at their incredible ability to contain, and be containers, but also of course not to be limited by that. The female is a beautifully guided mechanism and life force. I am very touched that you are receptive to observing that unique identity that women can wield. Of course any gender can wield anything but I am talking about the female collective, as you are.
Beautiful beautiful beautiful thoughts from a kindred spirit. - Whitetea
Thank you to Seren, Judyanne, Dawningdaytripper, Whitetea and Inkdragon sorry if I missed anyone. I also hope you will excuse my presumption as a male taking this one on. Perhaps see my earlier poem, “Women Warriors” http://www.neopoet.com/node/10451
all my love to all my poet warrior peers,
Jess
