War Paint

I just wanna show you the way that I feel.

My father always used to call my mother�s period her �WarPath.�
When we were little and all of our bodies looked pretty much the same my father used to warn us by saying, �Watch out. You Mother�s on the WarPath.�

I used to amuse myself by imagining crimson paint and swirling designs over the bright copper skin of her face.

Today when I wear my very own war paint, I am annoyed with my father for his euphemism. Today I am able to have completely forgiven my mother had she, with a rain dance and tribal weapon attacked the more barren of the species. He used to smirk and wink at my brother and say, �Women.� And now how I wish my mother had been an Amazon.

But mostly it seems unfair to me that women must go to war each month.
