Men Like Me
Men Like Me
It is men like you
Who enter a door
Holding one hand,
And exit another
Holding another.
It is men like you,
Riding motorcycles
With blaring horns,
Going sixty miles
In a twenty zone.
It is men like you
Who have masks
‘Under’ your charming
Fair and handsome faces.
It is men like you
Who love to engrave
Your egos upon her skin
When she strips down
For your pleasure.
But, it is men like me
Who are stepped over
When we hold the doors open
To enter and exit
Whenever she wants to.
But, it is men like me
Who are ran over
When we ask
For long walks
And simple conversations with
A small cup of tea and truth.
But, it is men like me
Being called masqueraders
By the false feminists
Who call and think of men
As all the same.
But, it is men like me
Who want to show you
The difference between
Love and lust
Deception and trust.
It is men like me
Who plead you;
Plead all men like you
To tell them,
All of them
Men and women,
That we, that I
Am not
Like you.
