The Flummoxed Life of a Female
There are men who think
women are merely an addendum.
One who must “splenderize” their beings,
to add to the
“Illustrious master’s image.”
What fools they are!
They’d be worth but a quarter each
should they lose the affection
of one garden embrace.
Poor rascal…
Make your whole life over again!
