We cry and laugh daily about the facts.
When how women hold multiple roles,
And only men rule the nation’s polls,
When women fight for what is right,
Why is it seen as pleas for our plight?
And not cries for fairness, just or equality?
For it is not that we are weaker in strength or mentality.
Feminists we are called when we fight,
Mothers we are seen as our right,
Sisters and daughters by birth,
Does not buy what diamonds are worth.
Maids that scrub and clean for men,
They say because only women can.
Men have held swords in war,
And girls grasp knives to slay the boar.
In the Garden of Eden, where it all began,
When eve stole the apple and cursed our clan,
To bear young but never escape pain,
But who made men wear the mighty mane?
Behind every successful man, is a woman?
On a mighty tree we are only glanced as a fern,
Why behind and not beside?
What do men have to hide?
To put her in her place,
Who made that ignorant phrase??
Nothing clouds my mind these days,
Unless i think about the confusion a silly man plays.
Clarity and equality are only what we strive for,
Who will give us this and more?
Take a second and ponder,
How will the world be without men I wonder?
Men can never live without women to bear their kin,
Women instead just need a single man to skin.
A million men and one women is unimaginable,
But one man and a million women is definitely applicable.
