Men must be poetic.
They are full of mixed feelings, they are pathetic.
Some of them have children, and then they just walk away.
Never knowing if they are really okay.
Are they running around on the streets?
Are they hungry, do they have enough to eat?
Maybe I sound angry, vicious, and cruel.
Maybe I am; I'm tired of being the fool.
So, don't be offended if you have something slick you're trying to say-
If I get up and just walk away.
Why men are pathetic? How does being poetic matter for doing or not doing the activities of men that you mentioned in the poem? I am really not clear!

I would like to translate this poem
Lolz! ! ! ! ! Okay, okay! ! ! I did not include the quote by W.H. Auden that inspired me to write this poem. “Poetry might be defined as the clear expression of mixed feelings.” I think men have mixed feelings when it comes to relationships and caring for their children. Atleast that has been MY experience. My ex - husband somehow found it easy to walk away and not even call or write for sometimes periods of up to three years without asking how the kids were. And I am aware I am not the only woman to experience this phenomena. When the relationship doesn't go their way it is amazing to see what was once love turn to hate- to watch how easy it is for them to turn their backs on their kids and not look back. And that third year- I called him to offer to terminate his parental rights. But that was my reasoning Khairul Ahsan. And I will consede that not all men are like this. And also that there are some women guilty of this as well. Glad to see I shook you up though. :)
