Humans Have Leaves
Humans too have leaves
they need no sunshine
no oxygen they can provide
chlorophyll they have not
black, white or grey they are
some permanently hidden
no food they make for plant
stomata are absent in all
cut them off but they grow
annoying, stubborn they are
but women love them so much
half their life time they spend
organizing, oiling, baking, guarding
try touching a woman’s leaves
without expressed permission
and a case of assault is filed
a great obscene tress pass it is!
