Notice in the street,
Comments on clothes you meet…
Bring offense
And a person’s defense,
On remarking their fashion is sweet!
–
Women do this all the time,
Acceptable with little crying…
But a man
Threatens and can,
Be thought too personally prying!
–
So glad that Demi Monde
And others don’t mind my response…
Half-way ’round the world
she’s a pretty safe girl,
No way I’d swim that “pond”.
–
Being nearly sixty years-old,
I suppose I’m being bold…
If I earn their trust
I never will bust,
Out of my harness until I’m too old!
