Girls Poem by David DeSantis

Girls

Rating: 4.4


It has suddenly become clear to me
That all women lack some honesty
In their glance
is a bigotry
Most superficial
by decree

You see:

A woman thinks with emotion
With the heart of an open ocean
Filled with warmth and some despair
Happiness and minor care
Where tides can change so quickly
Like a deep tsunami upon the sea
Swallowed whole if not with guide
A man must sometimes forget his pride
And remember most logically
That a woman lives on irregularity
Because if you should not take heed
Then I promise you alone shall be.
So when in pain you find this cancer,
then perhaps seek one more answer,
A tall, thin, dress less standard,
Forget the girlfriend
buy an exotic dancer.

Hmmm David, David, a GREAT poem. HOWEVER I got something about the 'male species' I wasnt going to put out. But since you got yours I think the female point of view should be made. But still I feel your poems.

although I personally disagree, this was an amazing poem. An absolute 10/10 Ps. Maybe your just going for the wrong type of women

Eh, what are you going to do? Everybody is a cliche, no? And men and women are opposites, some would argue compliments. Anyway, it was honest and it was clean cut so I liked it.
