The Road Taken

There once was a man quite dogmatic

Could not pronounce words—went traumatic

               Wrote three foolish lines

               Thought, “This undermines

All women whose work is thematic.”

A  man who had no right at all

On a Lady decided to call

               Did not show his cool

               Broke good conduct rule—

She said: Fool get down now and crawl.

A man thought he really was wise

To make comments that women despise.

               Said: woman can’t write

               Thought he’d win this fight—

As the Fool I now thee baptize.
