Men and Women





Men and Women

A man’s mind,
Boxes,
This is nothing new,
Review,
A problem seen,
(Or heard about),
The box is opened,
Pieces lay down,
Greens together,
Reds pushed toward the corner,
Where reds should go,
Placed,
Resolved,
And, the box,
Is closed,
A woman’s mind,
Wire,
This is nothing new,
Review,
A problem seen,
(Or heard about),
Wires run electrically,
Greens together (sometimes),
Reds are reds,
But, sometimes,
They scramble the greens,
(Men do understand),
(They really do, but would rather watch),
(Their football game),
Together,
We need boxes,
We need wire,
The frame,
The fire,
The strengths; desire from each,
And, when we love,
We reach across the divide,
Every day!
