The Sexes
Certainty, logic, reason supreme,
I am a man, discouraged to dream.
In realness I thrive,
wired to survive.
Beauty, emotion, and kindness are power.
I am a woman, a delicate flower.
With feeling I rule,
my heart the main tool.
Two sides to one,
the difference's sum.
When put together,
souls light as a feather.
Yet so incompatible:
the fiction, the actual.
Head in the clouds and feet on the ground.
Headless your trapped, and feetless your bound.
The genders entwined in unending dance.
Will she sway to him? Will he fall to her trance?
Can't be apart and can't be together,
leaving only a storm of indeterminate weather.
Two Sides
Two extremes of one side or the other
All respect is lost bewteen you an your brother
You satnd for this and he stands for that
No common ground for either, that's where we're at
All sense of decency has flown out the door
No one cares for the sick, and no one craes for the poor
Everyone is seeking self-interest, with no one else in mind
Oh dear God I pray, that common gorund we will find
