Patriarchy
Do we really want that patriarchy,
or all that malarkey with matriarchy?
What we need are guys and gals,
gals and gals and guys and guys,
who share the task of daily love,
the loving struggle, the daily shove:
But the world’s so foolish, not just a stage,
to jaunt and play on night and day,
whatever “archy” mal, or pat, or mat
we choose, let’s not loose our loving crews.
