I wrote this poem while I was struggling mightily to take control of my life. Good Girls Doris: My father said, If you make a mistake, you are bad. I was a good girl. Now I am very careful And I don't know what I fear. Mary: My priest said, The rythym method is the only way. I was a good girl. Now, my ten children have grown and left me And I don't know why I am. Betty: The media said, The way to keep your husband is to do what he wants. I was a good girl. Now, I make his meals, clean his house, go on his vactaions And I don't know who I am. Chorus: God, I hate being a good girl I WANT TO BE ME! Anne Bassler Kane
