1928 by Lindsay Baik

With avocado toast and Americano dark roast
Hot chicken mushroom soup with a cottage tulip vase
Made by your mother 
who now has the vote

Soft background music and art therapy
All done by your sisters 
who now have the vote

Dime-store perfume and a fat cat
All in your granny’s house 
who now has the vote

A few hundred years that Adam was in charge
But now it’s Eve too,
she has the vote.
