Gender Bender

On getting up I looked in the mirror
and to my amazement I saw I was a man
what fun I thought lets have some fun
I dressed in a man's suit and went to work

Driving there in my new porsche 
I gave the pretty girls a wave
I got lots of smiles and a few winks 
laughing I arrived at the office

Getting a fair few back slaps
as the guys drolled over my wheels
some winks and nudges, suggestive remarks
Hey Joe who's your lucky date tonight?

With this machine the worlds your oyster
listening to their bawdy jokes I hide a smile
And relish the tall tales of their own conquests 
so this is what goes on in the men's room

How they would cringe faces red if they knew
that no man was I just a lass who awoke a man
driving home my husband was cooking that night
dressed up to the nines in my best black dress

I had to laugh as he tottered on my stiletto heels
boy did he made a nice woman wearing a long wig
the food he made was no great shakes just uggy
but the love making more than made up for it

Next morning I approached the mirror
and soon saw that I was back to normal
Joe looked at me and grinned in delight
He said I made a better man than him

But we had better keep it quiet
as his co-workers would not live it down
I enjoyed my day as a man very much
seeing life from the other side

I'm a bit confused if your man switched genders too, or just cross-dressed, which leads to some interesting complications, doesn't it? In any case, quite amusing. Cheers, Roy

Very witty Shadow! A sudden changeover such as this one is likely to bring quite a few complications, and tricky situations!! I'd rather not play with fire:) // paul

Dear Shadow, Your poem had me laughing. Especially enjoyed the witty line about what goes on in the mens' room. I could care less about what type of car a fellow drives, but it seems to mean so much to men. Just don't understand this at all. Guess they're all looking for "babe magnets." I think you'll do very well in the Gender Bender contest with this entry. Wishing you success, Carolyn

Carolyn, about 90% of men's talk is a metaphor for who has the biggest one, whether it's a car, money, job, or power, it all comes down to the same thing.
