girl children in the 50's

bra burners of the 60's
weighted down with childhood parables
slogged on in our attempt

goals in sight, if not in grasp
strained within ourselves
to be allowed to be

yet, for some it came to naught
thought too uppity,in this pursuit of equality
we opted to buy push up bras
and remember things differently.
