Carol,

This undoubtedly overly wordy comment review is my open statement of support for fine Poetry, this Poem, and your noble and urgently viable cause for women around the world … Please do humor me, for more than a moment:

If one actually pays attention to that which the Jewish Tanakh & Christian Old Testament says, there were obvious events that allegedly took place in regards to reproduction without authorization: i.e.: The Garden of Eden's forbidden fruit scene that concludes with Adam and Eve evicted from the Garden with Eve knocked up immediately thereafter, and the Sons of God departing from their proper places to take for themselves the daughters of men (how was any woman, or her father for that matter, to resist such powerful beings) as an alleged act of rebellion that resulted in the Noah's Flood scenario ...

In both of these ancient telling of alleged events, it was/is the woman as Women who are always held responsible for the actions of men, serpents, and angelic beings, later rendering the coining of the term and name Jezebel for any woman as Women who would dare think to question a man's judgment, decisions, or Husbandly authority … Only when all men are revealed as cowards is a brave and wise Deborah allowed credit for her deeds, but it is clear she is just a woman ...

Even in the New Testament's account of (virgin?) Mary, a woman betrothed and espoused to Joseph, a woman bears the shame and brunt of responsibility for that which a man or God does as a Holy Spirit that impregnates another man's wife, leaving her to bear the shame and the penalty for engaging in Adultery, which was death by stoning, wherein the perpetrator (in this case a poor woman) would be stripped naked and publicly humiliated before the entire community, placed in a hole up to the waist with said hole then filled in to make escape impossible, and executed by stones hurled by each and every single member of said community, and all this for her alleged crime ... Perhaps, explaining why a Gospel's Jesus might say, let him who is without sin cast the first stone, for in this telling scene the woman accused was there and present to bear the blame and impending penalty, but the man was nowhere to be seen within the text nor found, and technically Jesus, himself, was born a Mamzer, a b*****d child, if such alleged tales are true ...

And this all of above is the which of exactly (as an EX-Minister) why I do conclude that Man (i.e.: ancient groups of men ruling over ignorant & superstitious villages & communities that eventually became nations) created the all too, obviously, Earthly concept of God applied to other men, women, and children that had nothing to do with whatever Ultimate It (my contrivance & coined terminology) that actually served as orchestrator and Creator of all that is and will ever be in fashioning, inexplicably, the Universe of Existence that our eyes do behold and we do, indeed, see incomprehensibly, as Man has never met, nor communed, with that said true source of existence within all of Existence, and never shall … For our common reality upon this Earth is that -- among men, as Man's Mankind that is the masses of Humanity called The Human Race -- Man is God just as God is Man, because it was Man who created and fabricated God in Man's image of attributes and characteristics …

It is this above stated fact which aptly explains why an alleged Supreme Being, called God (an ancient pagan Teutonic deity's name that later replaced the Hebrew name Yahweh in the Christian Bible, and which Judaism renders as ineffable and replaces with The Tetragrammation: YHWH, or Adonai & Elohim within the Jewish Tanakh), would love but hate, save and create but destroy, maim, kill, and murder, command but hypocritically violate those commands, wield authority but fail to take responsibility, and possess the urge's need to mate, to breed with a woman, and take a wife to bear Him offspring for posterity's sake, even if she is not willing, and that at the possible cost of her own life in childbearing, with men deciding who she is to marry or not to marry, at all ...

Let us think on this: Why would God need a wife, if He were not, altogether just like men, just like Man? ... And why would he, as an open practicing Polygamist, need to take two wives (two entire nations derived from one split nation similar to the north & south of America's Civil War: i.e.: The House of Israel & The House of Judah) and then openly and allegedly lovingly refer to them as Sheep of His Pasture? ... Was said God a Pervert? ... Was said God into Beastiality's, Zoophilia? ... One thing is Scripturally made quite obvious: God was/is a Sheep beater, a wife beater, and, therefore, the precedent's example for all heartless men to follow, for that primal example openly states: "If beating one's wife is good enough for God, it's good enough for me," with not a care in the world expressed for the plight of the wife as a woman, or wives and women anywhere upon this planet MEN choose to call Earth ...

From the ancient beginnings of Organized Religion (Judaism, Christianity, & Islam), men's minds have been conditioned and programmed to look down upon, mistreat, demean, and abuse Women, and this is a horribly heinous fact of our Human reality that shall take dedicated time to change, to openly reverse, and see properly and fairly righted as it rightfully and truthfully should be -- must be for the future of Humanity ...

As you can see, I loved your poem, and I do support your cause as a man who, in 49 years of marriage, found himself mistreating his own wife out of that ingrained teaching that begins with Religion and is backed up and supported by our own fathers in the way they, themselves, treated our mothers …

Nothing could ever be a good enough reason for abuse in a relationship...
No one has that right, and when it still happens that is heinous.
I worked in a refinery during my college days and listened to a conversation one day.
This man was actually the father of one of my classmates Mary Ann. He had a really big family, I think there were six kids. And he said this "Every so often you have to knock them around, just to keep them in line." He was referring to his wife.
I was so disgusted by that talk, I just couldn't like the guy or stay anywhere near him.

Jacob (Ya-acov),

reaility is, most of us guys have no clue as to our true selves as absolute f*****g a******s, and when we get a glimmer of a scphinter, we take a lustful look and think that it is a P***y, and it is, it is: It is a view of ourselves as Macho men who have balls, but do not posses the balls to own up to our own frailties, when all that we are is but Nachos, chips n dip for a reality unreal, while our women are left to suffer lives of misery all too surreal ... I lived it, a*****e that I once was, and am devoting my life to never being again ... But, then, we shall see, as time will surely tell ...
