It's not an overreaction
It never will be
But overreaction is what
It is often called now
Being female, to me,
Means being on alert all the time
It means always being aware
Of everyone around me
And so every comment
Every look
Every wink or smile
Sets off alarms in my mind
Suspicion comes naturally
Because you need to suspect
Everything
And everyone
Is a suspect
