Then They Sissyfied Us Poem by Phillip Nine Mafunga

Men of old
Bloodied rivers crossed
With tearless eyes, death they faced
Limbless, marched into victories
To create safe homes, safe societies

Men of old
Cried not when in pain
But sought the future in the rain
Die they would than be cowardly
Young men saw honour in power

Men of old
Valiently created their own peace
Mentored, led and protected
Then procreation was sacred
Fatherhood not for recreation

Men of old
Family priests and philosophers they were
Men today are weak and indecisive
Sex perverted, drunks and suicidal
Because they sissyfied us!
