Respect Your Goddess




Men!




Huge percent treat women bad

what the hell is our issue

somehow this make us feel glad

making them use a tissue?




Discern nothing nice to say

revel in our unkind role

what makes us act in this way

don't we care about their soul?




We should not be talking down

to someone we say we love

instead fitting with a crown

arrived on wings of a dove




Respect them with all our heart

let them know they are our world

simple plan, but it's a start

their wings becoming unfurled




They should not ever feel ties

to someone keeping them down

pains me when a woman cries

even when she wears a frown




Treat them as a fragile kit

be their protective armor

everyday show them we're smit

with comfort and our ardor




But what bothers me the most

lack of attention some give

on cruise control we do coast

should leak from us like a sieve




How does one not notice her

Aphrodite by one's side

others should be but a blurr

yet her face one wants to hide?




INCORRIGIBLE - to me

this thought of concealed beauty

there are others who DO see

and feel it as their duty




Willing to bow at her feet

giving notice whence deserved

unabashed - not rude - just sweet

the heart of their soul she's verved




Keep playing those silly games

they'll finish by losing her

watch as her desire wanes

and moves to someone else, sir!
