Angels live in heaven
And the demons in the netherworld
But peculiarly they are made to live together
Unable to bear each other and feeling exploited;
The species of the Homo sapiens is
Difficult to be comprehended, still complex
Are the workings of their minds;
They seem neither animals nor enlightened;
The female species has been bearing all the brunt,
The insensitive, selfish and high-handed exploitation
Of the male species;
Now many in the fair sex are liberated
Vow not to have a spouse who feels superior and demanding
Instead just a mate or companion;
Live in own economic security
And be independent;
Never to sub-serve but only be equal always;
But many do not know that
All women are not angels
And all men are not demons;
And they must live together for mutual emotional fulfillment
And healthy upbringing of the off-spring;
Only by sharing love, affection, understanding,
Commitment, responsibility, comradeship, sacrifice and compromise
Long live Homo sapiens in harmony, peace and bliss!
a tale of hope.. that the sexes will take to heart... thank you..
