A Man's World Part 4?
By MikeMorris
20 August 2006
If women could think they’d be lethal

That’s a truth that all men will admit.

But to say they could hope to be equal

Quite frankly now, that’s talking rubbish

 

Just get one and give her an atlas

Or better still, try a road map

Sometimes she knows how to hold it

 But at reading the thing she’ll be rubbish

Or let the poor dear try reversing

If really you quite enjoy farce

She’s as much chance at that quaint manouvre

As finding a jewel in her rubbish

 

In the kitchen, at cooking and washing

At baking or rinsing out smalls

They’re the mistresses there, let’s all be fair

But anything else? That’s just rubbish

A little nugget of truth tucked away in your poem,Mike. Good to see you joining in the fun. Nice effort. I haven't seen the poety forum so lively! 
cheers

I can't believe all you men really believe what you say. 
But I must admit I do have trouble with directions when I am driving somewhere new. I think its time for another woman's point of view.
