Kairos 

By Sophia Crestanelli 

There is no Kairos for that of a time, 
Crucial or suited for performing an act; 
To rewind the clock and take back what’s mine. 

Merry are men with the power to whine, 
Upon women who will withstand the impact; 
There is no Kairos for that of a time. 

From birth, women are taught to resign, 
Lest they will endure contact; 
To rewind the clock and take back what’s mine.  

To reflect upon such injustice of crime, 
No chance to be heard or react; 
There is no Kairos for that of a time. 

Their equal, not inferior, embosked I opine, 
The opportunity to counteract; 
To rewind the clock and take back what’s mine. 

Father, son, brother, lover of non-benign, 
My rights I will extract; 
There is no Kairos for that of a time, 
To rewind the clock and take back what’s mine.
