Poetry Friday - The Greater Yield

The Greater YieldThe male disease, the power strategem,the way of sacrifice, the love that kills.If something has to give, it won't be them,men hope, as they engage their phallic wills.Some say they'd rather be a soldier thana cripple -- there's a difference?  They believe,as Wilde did, in appearance, but the manthey praise must wear his balls upon his sleeve.Be hard, my dear: until you break.
