Letter To A John
“I want you to pay me for my beauty
I think it’s only right
‘Cause I have been paying for it
All of my life”
“We barely have time to react in this world
Let alone rehearse
And I don’t think I’m better than you
But I don’t think that I’m worse
Women learn to be women
And men learn to be men
And I don’t blame it all on you
But I don’t want to be your friend”
–Out of Range by Ani DiFranco
Note: The quotes are from the lyrics of songs written and performed by Ani Difranco. The book is a collection of poetry and paintings – also by Ani DiFranco. I was unable to locate the music CDs in my affiliate program, but everything can be found at http://www.righteousbabe.com.
