Haiku for Women

How come you always
manage to win arguments
by having the last

Always at the sink
thinking of different uses
for the carving knife.

I was drawn to his
animal magnetism,
repelled by the smell..

Kiss the boys, Georgie.
Make them cry for their mothers,
then screw their fathers.

Understand his needs,
empathise with his weakness:
then you can hurt him.
