Men Are Like That Poem by Mwenyeji Spikes

Men are peculiar and mystique
In gods eyes they stand free with will
Husbands, fathers, sons and brothers
All made out of the very clay by the pool at Eden

Designed to the makers' specification and imagination
Most have no clue of the limits of their wants and desires
Measuring their muscle and life's worth against that of others
Granted dominion over all creatures and resources of the earth
They rule over the earth and multiply both in honor and contempt

The thoughts of power, control and conquest
Men are from mars and women from Venus
In pursuit of love many have been wounded
At the battle grounds for conquest many succumbed
You may never know what they know, guilt pleasures

Yet they stand clueless but steadily coming up with a plan
Men are courageous, most with the heart of a lion
Are eager for love but afraid to commit
Honor their fathers and mould their sons
Men are a mystery, dark like a forest some just bright as the day
