Command

Disclaimer: My account got deleted a few months back so I am reuploading my poem "Command" Oh honey, you ‘ain't doing it right We all learn where our place is at home I guess its my fault for not teaching you well Now you will see what to do I gotta set the example to ya It's hard when you first start out But soon, you’ll get the hang of it Either the easy way or the hard way At all say, you follow his word He knows better, he says better Don’t try to refute him on anything he says This will make him mad because you aren’t treating him right Give him anything he wants He comes home exhausted from work It’s our job to attend him right So that he doesn’t overwork himself If he tells you something isn’t done right, it an’t done right Us ladies can become very forgetful at times However his memory is sharp as a needle Just don’t be a fuss and redo it No matter how much the first time might have hurt Whatever goes on in the house stays in the house No need to brother folks with the same old story Its for our good, so we can become better He always apologizes anyways Its enough if he says sorry No matter how much it hurt No matter how much make-up it takes it to cover Its our job to obey at command An eternal game of Simon says Where only Simon can be the winner Where only Simon can speak He is our puppeteer And we are his marionettes He pulled eachs tring carefully Crafting and forming an ultimate bride He pulls our strings And we have no option but to stand He grabs ands pulls and tugs Our lifeless and dull bodies into a perfect creation He is best But once we provoke him, he is beast One that roams the halls at night Preying on innocent victims that you want to run and hide Stand still This takes time Many learn the hard way When he yells for spoiled milk We have to take it all in We are taught that in his presence We shut up and be good girls When he grabs you at your throat You can hardly ever take a deep breath When he bounds you And puts you in chains Ones that you can’t get out of It turns your wrist an assortment of red and blue You have to stop resisting Don't pull away from his grasp Let his words put you in a hypnoses Let yourself learn from him Life is never fair And we can never get what we want But we gotta trust that he is best Because we never want to see his best turn into beast
