Looking for the Land of Women

Rumors whispered over warm beers at back bars, 
hints and winks, 
			a land of women. 

Conversations suddenly pause as you pass, 
words, half-heard,
			free women.

A bartered map drawn on a napkin, 
scraps of a letter found in a hotel drawer, 
			a country where women walk freely.

Hints and best guesses pick a horizon.
Can we triangulate? Do we have coordinates? 
				Are we getting closer? 

Like what you're reading? Don't keep it to yourself.
