Smelled your piss

Walked down the street,
Smelled you piss!
Two of us had to stand, today in the subway,
You were sprawled all over the seats,
To accommodate your enormous organs

We know you have a penis
We are not impressed
Are you trying to convince yourselves?

No final solutions

The old woman rocks on her chair
In the distance children run, not her own
She smiles at the birds in flight

Three generations, she has seen
Yet, in many ways, she knows she is still like those children

But now, she knows
Best friends may betray you,
You just have to accept that they did, and move on

Still a toddler, but now she knows
No need to go to,
Jerusalem, Mecca or Lourdes
God is equally everywhere

Still a little girl, but now she knows,
There is no end to evil and no end to the fight to stop it.

Still a teenager, but now she knows,
The only way to live is to follow your dreams

Still a young mother, but now she knows
Like the ants, you must rely on yourself

Still the divorcee, now she knows
Nothing is impossible, if you have faith

Proud cancer survivor, but now she knows
To enjoy every single moment

Lonely mother, but now she knows
If you love someone, set them free

Flawed woman, but now she knows
Even lovely damsels, must fight their own fight

Woman alone, but now,
She enjoys the company she keeps

Should she tell them
Isn’t finding out, all the fun?
Old woman, but she still remembers
How she never listened
And she smiles

What a wonderful journey
Plastic surgery, her eternal mind, does not need.

Twenty-first century woman

How they have lied to you?
Tell me little one.
You alone deserve to be loved.
You alone deserve to be cherished.

Have they told you to be a good girl?
Have they told you to be virtuous?
Have they told you to be curious?

And, they also told you to waste away studying
And please, please, be perfect, daughter, mother, C.E.O. and wife
All rolled up into your perfectly organized calendar!

And, mercy, you did do it.
You drove little girls to ballet classes
And little boys to karate classes
You studied through the night for the exams
You nuked some good food and stroked male egos everywhere
And you did make the company’s picnic.

They have you so busy with this perfection agenda,
Even your diet is so perfectly healthy, you might indeed live to be ninety
And reflect what a raw deal that was

Will you then moan over all your effort
And long for the days in your primitive past
When it was easier to be a woman and so much simpler

Who are you kidding?
It was always rough
Then and now, know what the real game is
This way, you can play your game.

You can choose to love your children, though you may die alone in a nursing home
You can choose to nurture your husband, though he may leave you for a younger one
You can choose to nurture your career, though it may leave a bitter taste in your mouth
You can choose to be a good daughter, know you may loose yourself

Let it be your choice
They have all broken the pact, they now want you to raise the kids, earn the bread,
Be whore and wife at once
For all this backbreaking work, they pay you with men of straw
Rewards of dust.
There is no pact

Make your choice
Play your own game
Then you may have that mysterious smile, old women all over the world use to tease.

Twenty-first century man

I used to hate you
I used to despise you
I didn’t want to kill you
I wanted to keep you alive to torture you

Then, I imagined what it would be like to be you
No, you are not limited in some capacities
Truly you are boundless.

Malehood is a freak accident
A different recipe and you would have been part of the beautiful sex
Raw deal you got, but it’s all yours

Though you may feel as innocent and inexperienced as a fairy tale princess
All expect you to be seven-foot tall
Slender and muscular at once
Sensitive and strong
Aggressive and nurturing
Brave and fearless
Born the perfect lover, you get no teacher

No less, no more than you, fairy tale princess everywhere thrive and so can you

Truly, it is a hard thing to be a man on this earth this century. from truegaystories.com
