Taming of the Shrew

Before mankind evolved on Earth or mammals roamed the land t’was only bugs and dinosaurs that God had ever planned. But monkeying around one day he thought he’d have some fun and made a man to pass his time, thus mankind had begun. But boredom overtook him nothing changed within his land so he thought I’ll make a creature that I cannot understand. That way I’ll be surprised each day by how this creature plays and my boredom will be over and bring interest to my days. He named this creature women but he didn’t get it right he forgot to give her reasons why she wasn’t always right. So God or Man or creatures could not ever prove her wrong and now universal language shares in woman’s nagging tongue. Its not that I’m complaining cause it would be just in vain and anyhow my ear holes really couldn’t stand the pain. But my God if you could ever see your way to tame the shrew then I’m sure that man would turn from her and start to worship you! Ivor G Davies
