WOMEN'S MOODS

[Describes, from male perspective, the problem with women's moods]



Why do moods of women change?
Why can't they be consistent?
Why must they for ever shift,
Having taken once a stand?

These questions and others such,
Do plague men throughout the life.
They can argue in board rooms
But never with their own wife.

What makes them so impotent?
When at home they just bide time.
Same men in the office can
Be a terror leonine!

Ten women in the office
Can be controlled by a man.
But he quivers in the home,
Facing a single woman!

Such mysteries eternal
Do from men remain hidden.
Trespassing on women's mind
Is totally forbidden!

When they talk of women's lib,
When they talk of women's rights,
Why must women heap on men
All sort of insult and slights?

Men and women are equal.
That fact is never in doubt.
But to prove this should women,
On men, scornful venom spout?

If things continue like this,
Verily a day will come;
Non-discrimination will,
The demand of men, become.
