The Hunters
Years have passed
time upon time
civilizations have come and gone
and this truth remains:
Men are still hunters
The hunt remains
as long as the prey escapes
Once caught
and the hunter devours
the pursuit is on for another....
Women are still gatherers
The gather words
Thinking them precious
nourishing for the soul
They still gather
caresses and kisses
Tender words
affection's bliss
Women are still gatherers
gatherers of hunter heads
