I found myself reflecting on my work yesterday. I truly tried to keep it brief, but I had too much to say. Yet I understand it was a lot to share, so this piece is only fair. If you're feeling generous enough, please re-share. There's no obligation, but by merit, surely I have a chance at persuasion:
It's Everywhere,
Near Impossible To Ignore,
I Hear It, I see It Everyday,
It's Becoming a Bore.
It was Initially Interesting,
But Nowadays,
Hearing it, Is A Chore.
Romance Is Sheer Vanity,
It's Commercialized Nonsense,
I'm Merely Offering Clarity.
I Take A Dim View
Of the Modern Cinderalla Complex,
Grow Up
It's No Flex
Retreating to Echo Chambers
How Predictable
But Yet So Wasteful
So Risible.
Expecting So Much From Men,
Yet Treat Them
As If they're Invisible.
You're Accustomed to
The Visibily Absent
Thus is Pathological
I could elaborate more
But No Need
To Be Tautological.
Take This As A Reproach
Or Take It As Advice
Or Do Nothing,
Merely Roll The Dice
It's Not So Rewarding
To Be Nice,
It's Tempting To Be Cold,
Cold As Ice.
You See There Is No
Conflict,
There Never Was
There Never Will Be
But Feel Free
To Gender War
Role Play
Ignore That
It's An Unprecedented
Social Experiment
How does it Feel?
To Have The Fallacy
Entirely Shattered?
To Be Honest
Many Like Drama,
Not That This
Reveal, Mattered
But I do Appreciate
You Reading,
I'm Truly Flattered.
With this Piece
I'm On Episode Four
My Efforts
Have To Be Finite
So I'm Keeping Score
But it's Good
To Decisively Address
The Myth of
The Gender War.
