Where

i'll eat your chicken
if you eat mine
but you don't cook
but i can rhyme
but i don't eat meat
even fried cast iron
but i'll eat your chicken
if you eat mine

now a dime ain't worth
a nickel these days
once said a Yogi
Barre was his name 
he didn't have dreads
but dreaded all the same
that a dime ain't worth
a nickel these days

i once met a woman
as hairy as me
compared my beard
to her butt cheeks
i thought i found
what sought i seeked
when i found a woman
as hairy as me

i can't say what attribute
suited her most
her laugh or hirsute
like a bear compared
i'll be resolute
i metaphor
for her bare suit

Thank you so much for your comment Alkas it means a lot to me. Actually based somewhat on truth. I do have a woman friend is hairier then me, but her man friend is fine with it, and she's fine with me; a wonderful individual. Unique.
