The Woman

She is equipped with sensitive *******

and those other secret places

that ladies give out as prizes

to deserving guys as long as

they adopt the right disguises

of gods, gurus, intellectual giants,

goats, children, father figures, macho brutes,

sugar-daddies, supermen, seminal vessels,

house-repairers, jar openers, jocks, hate objects,

handy shoulders to cry on, emotional support systems,

sensitive, intuitive, yet strong silent types

who can also pay the bills,

tall dark and handsome total strangers,

toy boys, clowns, jugglers, jokers, millionaires,

wood choppers, ******* removers,

bottomless reservoirs of reassurance

or just plain spunky studs when the moon is right.

In fact, anything but woffly wimps.

Oh God, no.  Anything but woffly wimps.

Yes, but what about stoic, steadfast SNAGS,

you know, the Sensitive New Age Guys

who won’t face-shift for a ****

Yes, well, let's try to sum all this up here right now.

I think that the woman is dripping

with a brimming reservoir

of luscious and sensitive resources on tap for  

the man who can figure out her cosmic kaleidoscope  

of swirling dreams and desires,

which is definitely not to say she can’t be totally independent.

Although please don't be confused.

Friendly boy-next-door types who are handsome,

aren't too hairy, who like to laugh, who have a boyish braggadocio,

who are students, who appear to be intellectuals,

who are not nerds,

and who can **** it in the kitchen, who  can be oh, so cool,

who can convince a maiden that she is in distress,

and is in need of rescuing, while he has

a swaggering hard-on will do, too.

Oooh. You devil.

And if you think this poem is misogynist, misanthropic or myopic,

well, I’ve been around and by now, well,

I really should be panoptic

because I’ve seen all the fads,

and really, it’s sadly too bad

about those poor old

earnest SNAGS.

But you know what?

I don't think I understand anything, because

I'm really a victim of worshiping women.

I'm bedazzled and as blind as the next man, and

yes,

I'm just happy whenever I'm with them.

Yes. A complex topic, this one...
