When she’s sick I’m so in trouble Rocks my world, bursts my bubble, All at once my head is spinning, Forehead aching, hair fast thinning. I’m not trained to handle chores, Clean the house, go to stores, Cook the meals, feed the kids, My existence on the skids.

Here she comes like shaft of the sun, walking, As sullen eyes and widened mouth feast – Dubbed the slayer of love; the goddess of lust – all stalking Libidinously like a fun starved beast Beauty so hypnotic, enslaving whoever looked twice Ensnared kings, drunks, gamblers and sorcerers Ducked in her den as hankering pleasure floats itchy eyes – Loyal...

I'd like a chance of true romance To dance across my loveless path A seed in me to place- implant, But I find it all a laugh! In splendored lands to hold our hands, While Beauty lies where Love will stand? Ha! But in an instant, it feels so distant- A Union to disband...

Look at him and see that he's determined To win the glories now denied; See his zeal and study his will, It is the highest satisfaction he wants to feel. Father of all and the Author of Truth, Look towards him with merciful favor, And guard him from those uncouth, And bless his every toil and endeavor....
