A SINCERE WISH FOR A GOOD MAN

A SINCERE WISH FOR A GOOD MAN

Easy to love
Easy to bed
This is the trap
driving nice men to wed

Easy to cry
Easy to sob
Then he'll be mangled 
Like corn on a cob


Easy to spend
Easy to lose
This is the life
That most fellows choose

Just call a lawyer
He’ll fix it for you
Get rid of the woman
Who snazzles the screw

Pack up the kids--
Send them to mom--
Hope their new school
Has no majors in bombs

Find a new wife
Any looker will do
A paper doll woman
Is easy for you

Work and grow old
It's usual to do
Find someone to hold
Never fret about ‘true’

But

If you’re a man
With an itch to break molds
There lurks a companion
To have and to hold

Don’t look in a bar
Or pick-up soiree
Stay off of the sites
featuring boobs of the day

haunt musty books
near old movie shows
Find someone laughing
Or blowing her nose

a genuine character
packs humor and wit
When brains are a match
other parts learn to fit

    ‡ This Is Sooo Sweet. Cool. I Diggg It, Sweet Beautiful Victoria. I Don't Know What Else To Say But, I Really Love The Ending, Aside Another Dip Into The Humour One Must Find Amid A World Filled With Twisted Truths ? Again, 'I Love The Parts Which Fit.' Joyful Holidays To Your Beauty As Always. My Love, Rachel *
