You give me diets.
On page 50, I can eat.
On page 80, I must starve
To fit a cut-out
Only Twiggy could squeeze into.
Page 34 says I can really lose weight by
Eating pepperoni pizza?
On page 92, I can speed up my metabolism
By eating six meals a day!
Wow!
I like pizza, but
Six times a day?

You give me fun crafts.
Let’s sit around
Ignoring our careers
And eat your chocolate cake
And six pizzas
While making
Tacky Halloween pot-holders.
I have nothing better to do.
According to you,
I should stop my juggling act
To make my house the envy of
Martha Stuarts everywhere.

Let’s live in your woman’s world.
June Cleaver is back
With her perfect house,
Perfect meals,
Perfect hair
And Barbie-Doll body.
Mr. Cleaver bends her any way he wants
While he fucks her.
All the while, June makes
Pretty lace doilies and happy baskets
While the Beaver and his brother
Rape her time.
Where’s your mind?
Where’s your soul?
Trying to make that cake on page 50
While eating six pepperoni pizzas
And making Halloween pot-holders.
No real life for you, June.

No thank you.

I put your Woman’s World
Back on the shelf
And pick up a Cosmo
So I can learn to rock his world,
But not how to advance my own.
And to be envious of the
Curvy toothpick cover girl.
Another Woman’s World in disguise?
I pay my three bucks fifty.

SUCKER!
