Your Spouse Is Not Angel Poem by Hebert Logerie

Please don't fall into nonsense
Your wife is not an angel
Please use your common sense
Marry a woman, a natural
Angels live in Heaven
Not on earth. That's a myth
Marry a spouse, a woman
Yes, you can touch her with your teeth
You can lick her cheeks and kiss her
A woman bites much harder
Than a gentleman. I know, I know
I don't want to say more or to go
There. I am not being chauvinistic
Use dialogue to solve all problems
Please no violence. Be altruistic
Wise and gentle. Stay far from the dams
You're not an angel yourself, my friend
Always be present for a helping hand
And don't mess up; everybody is watching
And the whole country is listening
You cannot marry an angel or a saint
This is the truth. Please do not faint.
