I am a Woman Marine,
One who stands tall and looks clean.
My uniform is always pressed,
And i look hot in a dress.
I can fight, I am Strong,
I serve my country and i march along.
I am as good as any man,
For we both go through the same training you understand.
Some say women are weak and can't fight,
I dare some man to challenge my true might.
My muscles may not be as big but i have my mind,
For i am smart and for some men this is hard to find.
Some think women here don't belong,
That is why i sit here singing my song.
I am a Woman Marine and proud,
And if you oppose me i'll just shroud.
Cause there is no other job i'd want to do,
Then serve my great country, the Red, White, and Blue.
Author notes
WM is a short abbreviation for Women Marine, A bunch of the Male Marines like to joke thatWM really stands for Walking Mattresses. So i write this poem to prove em wrong.

And prove them wrong you did. While reading this it brought to mind a Toby Keith song. This has amazing flow and wonderful rhyme. I couldn't help you kick their ass, but I'd cheer you on. Anyway I've currently been thinking about joining some branch of the military lately and it's great to see that we have such a talent woman serving our country. You rock! I don't know what else to say this poem is amazing and you seem totally awesome also.

awesome
Hell yeah!!!!!! Just the poem itself and your attitude towards their childish, naive, insecure comments shows that you have more mind-power than they!!! And I loved the line, "I look hot in a dress"...haha not only are you determined, strong, and astute, but you are hot as well....you know they just WISH you were a walking mattress!!! Maybe the male marines are just a bunch of meat munchers!! Or minion maggots!!! Or mindless mechanisms!! Hehehe ok I'm having too much fun
Thanks for the read!!

It would be highly typical of the male Marines to poke fun at you simply because you're a female and they don't think you belong there. This poem shows that you indeed do belong, and are always capable of outsmarting any of them! After all of the strenuous training each Marine goes through individually, the only thing you are worthy of is respect. I say, beat them at their own game one of these days and then they'll see that WM doesn't mean "walking mattress"!
Loved this piece. Thanks for entering, and good luck to you.
Many blessings,
Raven Aurora
