men fight for what they
see. touch. taste. smell
we grasp. fix. restore. repair
most are strong enough to endure
physical pains aches. diseases
without a hint of complaint
some are quiet never speak out
inside hoping their actions speak louder
men do not have the features
that make women beautiful
there are no smooth edges
there are no shapely thighs. *******
god did not bless man
god gave him woman
to ponder
to investigate
to protect
to engage
i hope she never makes us stop
