Man Hater

In a world of men she has her misery
she prays for our deaths nightly
all there is to blame
is all in a name
Men
from the declining of our education
to the West Nile Virus
she blames 
Men
when she sees a temptress catching eyes on a magazine
or a dead body in a ravine
expired warranty on a machine
she screams
Men
when a war breaks out
when someone hair falls out
she screams 
Men
every pot hole is our fault
every locked vault
control we seek
and keep women meek
if it's trendy and sheik
she blames 
Men
if it's falls apart or stalls
if it breaks in two or three
look out you better flee
for here she comes to kill us all
she screams
Men
to all the  tire recalls
for all short waterfalls
from stale donuts
to the Mets being in a rut
she screams 
Men
