The Power of Women [POETRY]

A woman is a mysterious thing,
Whose simple, single ‘How’s it goin’?’
Is enough to befuddle a man,
To frustrate his focus,
To weaken his strength.
The women who want to exercise
Maximum power in the world
By putting on a pair of pants
And sitting on a corporate board
Or in a senator’s chair
Have got it all quite wrong –
All they need do
Is grab the men-folk rulers
By their collars
And tell them softly,
​‘I love you so!’
