Ladees R Us

I wish – I wish 
I could take my man
and amputate both feet
replace them with the 
strength to lead 
through our troubles and defeats

I wish – I wish
I could take my man
erase the thoughts in his mind
replace them with romantic ones
spontaneously inclined   

I wish – I wish
I could take my man
and transplant both blind eyes
replace them with the vision
to live a settled life  

Perhaps you have a wish to add
just jot it down below
but if there’s more that comes to mind
it’s time to let him go

I wish – I wish
I could take my man
