The War between the Sexes

Women are sensitive,
the three most used words
are 'I love you',
the four most used are
'it's all your fault',
men are mechanical,
why can't you put the seat down?

Men solve problems,
find solutions,
repair the dish washer
without directions,
drive around,
why can't you just ask?

Your children are fighting,
the dog wants out,
what happened
to my car?
there was a bottle of wine
on the shelf.

the full moon
at twilight –
rhymes with orange

spring desire
reflects
in summer eyes

plum blossoms
fall
into autumn wine

two blackbirds
in the market
picking, picking
