kitty's claws

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD HAVE...

A set of screwdrivers,
A cordless drill, and
A black lace bra.


EVERY WOMAN SHOULD HAVE...

One friend who always makes her Laugh...
And one who lets her cry...


EVERY WOMAN SHOULD HAVE...

A good piece of furniture
Not previously owned by
Anyone else in her family...


EVERY WOMAN SHOULD HAVE

Eight matching plates,
Wine glasses with stems,
And a recipe for a meal that will
Make her guests feel honoured.


EVERY WOMAN SHOULD HAVE...

A feeling of control over
Her destiny...


EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...

How to fall in love
Without losing herself...


EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...

How to quit a job
Break up with a lover
And confront a friend without ruining the friendship...


EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...

When to try harder ..... and
when to walk away


EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...

That she can't change
The length of her calves,
The width of her hips, or
The nature of her parents...


EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...

That her childhood
May not have been
Perfect. but;
It's over....


EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...

What she would and
Wouldn't
Do for love or more...


EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...

How to live alone...
Even if
She doesn't like it.


EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...

Whom she can trust,
Whom she can't,
And why she shouldn't
Take it personally.


EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...

Where to go...
Be it to her best friend's kitchen table.
Or a charming inn in the woods...
When her soul needs soothing...


EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...

What she can and can't accomplish
In a day...
A month.
And a year...


i guess this is why i mostly feel like a girl
