Rebuttal To Rachel Poem by Herbert Nehrlich

Rachel:

There is a man who's never wrong
He dwells within a tower
He hoards his facts within his head
It is his source of power.

When folks shout up to question him
He wastes no time with charm
But gives out data, always right,
To take back to the farm.

Reply:

There is a woman who reminds
the man of a cute chicken
though chickens tend to wear their blinds
when plots expand and thicken.

A pecking order was conceived
by those of higher power,
some birds though always have believed
that men inside a tower

can be persuaded to come down
and face their feathered buddies,
but men in towers wear a gown
befitting fuddy-duddies.

So, it is best (is my advice)
to yield to higher powers
this principle only applies
to those outside of towers.
