I’m no lady

I’m all woman

Gaye Davis jests

on SAFM’s The Editors

(all women on the show)


I’m no lady

I’m all woman

responding to the

3 ladies on the show

(a man-made observation)


(He does the mumbo-jumbo

by saying he is blessed

having these women

on his morning show)


I’m no lady

I’m all woman

if you can tell

the big difference

(sans any gender testing)


I’m no lady

I’m all woman

as we go along

into the 16 days ritual

of anti-abuse activism


I’m no lady

I’m all woman


For how long

this wisecrack

in women’s name


With the ritual of 16 days of activism against violence against women and children upon us, SAFM’s The Editors guy-fellow Elvis Preslen shoots himself good-naturedly, Sunday morning, November 1 2009, as he has done throughout August Women’s Month, in his many manly attempts to contribute to gender parity; this Sunday claiming to be ‘blessed’ by having 3 ‘ladies’ on his programme – Gaye Davis, Kim Cloete and Ferial Haffajee.
