Man In The Mirror Shadows True Leadership Poem by Terence George Craddock (Spectral Images and Images Of Light)

Displacement theory
an iron lady with iron balls
anything he can do she can do better
climb political ladder throw away
compassion integrity humility
become a hard astute ruthless man
a brutal arrogant man clone
dominating callous indifference
egos of self imposing importance.


We really need more such strong men not.
Where is wise nurturing feminine nature?
What is wrong with tender encouraging care
intuitive protection bestowed upon country?
Insightful discerning inspiring sensitive shrewd
illumination ability to see clearly intuitively;
true nature of complex situations human need.
A clear perception humane seems politically rare?
A matriarch endearing not schizophrenia clones.
