Literary Appreciation Of #the Other Room (poem) by hommespecia: 11:34am On Oct 18, 2016
*THE OTHER ROOM*...

The other room
Where a woman pretends to be weak
So that a man can believe he is strong

Where a woman pretends to be foolish
So that a man can say he is wise

Where a woman stoops
So that a man can conquer.

The other room
where gods of men
Become worshippers of women


Where leaders of thought
Become minions Of the bleeders of blood


Where wielders of power Succumb to power of The other room


Where the brashness of testosterone
Yields to the bra straps of Estrogen


Where the bravado of masculinity
Is tamed by the wiles of femininity


Where the turgid Becomes the flaccid


Three rooms In a house
One in which a man Believes he is king
Two in which He realizes...
A woman is god!
