A Woman's Failure

I failed
To build that wall
To take a call
To sail with the wind
To know my sin

Barbs I took
To heart like hooks
They dug deep
Took away sleep

You found me wild
Not quite your style
No bowing nor stooping
So world  would go whooping

A woman so fallen
To forget her calling
To stand and demand
Not obey command

I failed
To build that wall
To take that call
To sail with the wind
To know my sin.
