Complicatd

Women
we all know are
so many knobs and buttons
strings and levers
volumes and settings
push or pull?
up or down?
speak into the mic
of adjust the equaliser?
all so very confusing
for a simple man

I think I have more chance
with this Rubik's cube
I hold in my hand

Women aren't all the same!!! Have you caught c*ap from other people, too? The write is cute and in a lighthearted sense, it is funny. Love the Rubik cube line. But, really, do you think you're like every other man? I don't. Poetry hugs ... CayCay

Arthur, I am pretty sure you have all the skill and talent it takes to coexist with one of these creatures! Sure it's tough, but anyone who has a kind heart and empathy like you do can certainly have a lot of fun in this crazy world. While we bleed for the less fortunate, we can still maintain our inner joy. Thanks for making me smile!!! You are funny when you want to be!

Dear Arthur, how clever and humorous take on the complexities of human relationships. I loved the comparison between understanding women and solving a Rubik's Cube is both witty and relatable. Enjoyed!! Spring Blessings, My Dear Friend, Daniel

If so, is it a male or a female error?

Was the spelling error in the title intended?
