    that's the title by the way.. not the first line of the poem..

    i used to have a use for men
    when they were strong
    and mine

    but now i have no use for men
    they're like king kong
    they whine

    in matriarchy men knew their place
    their lowly role
    below

    in patriarchy men lack all grace
    all hope all goal
    i know

    there's hope for men
    but when oh when?

    i wrote this after a relationship ended.. it's a universal experience
    for all women.. the imagery in the poem conveys despair.. but not total
    despair i hope.. rise up sisters..

    i'm sorry, rhonda-jane, but after years of being subjected to laughably
    awful "poetry" by the likes of Will Donkey and his Stink, your poetry
    almost reads straight. Hell, it's at least as good as the stuff George
    Dunce occasionally posts.

    Do you mean the poetry that he hasn't plagiarized? Very few of those.

    Do you mean the poetry

    Why do you lie and misrepresent so much, Nancy Gene?
