the feminist approach to style and power
is horizontal and uses "and" a lot
because each thing that's added is
in addition to
not better than
or more powerful than
or more truthful than

The Virgin, to a feminist,
is one of the images of woman

The naked lady is another
of the images of woman

But Man, according to his wants,
sees these images in hierarchical style
where one is of higer status than the other

Spiritual status? Moral status?
Desirable sexual partner status?
and man in his hierarchical lust for power
places higher that which he wants more

AT THAT TIME

for images are temporal in their meaning.

So saith the feminist,
Well, some feminists.
