Know Your Worth
A Love Poem for the Women of
DailyWorth
Written by Rha Goddess
“You Deserve the Best”
That’s why my mother always stuffed
An extra $5 in my bobbie socks
For bubble gum, sweet tarts, fire balls and lollie pops
Candy coated love turned
to
“buy yourself something nice” money
to
“just in case you see something you like” money
to
“later for him—he’s acting funny,
Girl-u-betta-get-home-safe” a/k/a—mad money
to
a next level security deposit on “your own pad honey!” money
Ladies, you know…
The Protection…..
That watchful mother hens dole out
When they breed
Survivors
Risk takers
Planetary Movers-Shakers
I’m talking about
Bold Women
Who kick the shards of glass ceilings out from underneath their stilettos
And hum lullabies to their sons and daughters in the latest tune
Of Rhiana
I’m talking ‘bout
Courageous Women
Who don’t take “No” for an answer
Who keep their eyes on the prize
But never forget they’re on the road less travelled
I’m talking—Empowered Women
Who will seize their moment of (r)evolution
Put it all on the line—not just to build a venture
But to spark the next feminine movement
To all my women...
Supa-dupa fly women…
Do whatever it takes to make it happen
Right Now! women
On this auspicious DailyWorth occasion
These are my wishes for you
May your dollars never outweigh your sense
May you always understand that the endgame is liberation
And may you forever Know Your Worth
From the inside-out!
