A Woman's Worry (Original Text)

When you tear away my flesh, I do bleed
When bearing a seed, I bear a child
When you trample on me, I do scream
I am human, why do you treat me like dirt?

------------------------------------------------

Cold Cough (Response)

You act as thought it is so simple,
As if my heart is dumb and absent.

If I do bleed, it matters for null.
If I do release, it has no worth.
If I do fall and am tossed about, cries are shamed.

I too am a human,
If you were treated as such then I am lower.
Such has been my life, and do you care?

My response is called "Cold Cough"

I chose to take the side of a single man's internal ideas. Rather selfish but interesting still.

I base that on the manner in which he "coughs" out his retort in a harsh manner.

I really like this response. It takes it to another individual's point of view and rebuttal. Very well said. I could hear the "cough" myself.
