A poem by Molly Bolte OH HOW I HATE/LOVE THEE Oh how I hate/love thee let me count the ways You are 'Other' so therefore I hate you Let me count the ways I'll start with your gender family tribe nation language culture Then I'll hate your skin color eyes lips nose any and every single body part you have or not And of course I'll hate your weight height body type Please don't forget that I hate your age energy level and of course your personality Seriously, I can't tolerate your religion spirituality politics voting preferences nor your sexual preferences I totally reject your diet eating habits clothes music vices What can I possibly say about your IQ education experience competencies skills and supposed talents Don't get me started about your books vocabulary voice We can't forget your teams hobbies activities ...
