Table-Turning

 I want us to rise up and start a war -
Or at least to cause a commotion.

I want us to go to town on a Saturday night
And start a fight. 
I want us to rain down blows 
And cause men to fear. 

I want us to lose our shit in public. 

Long have we borne, cared, endured. 
Long have we nursed, tended, understood. 

It's time the tables were turned.
