a few words

in my, Rosemary’s world –
feminist consciousness
is a void
there is no way out
no one to turn to
everyone is within
while she stands alone, without

those who must control her
their victory is total
not because they defeat
feminism, her
but because they rule over
a world
in which feminist possibilities
where hope, her hope
does not exist

this is my world
my trans womanhood, no where
except oppression,
violence, control
and death

what is without to her – now that she is within us –
for she is we – and we are the witch
