Is it sexist to think a man should be able to build something
At least a relationship
At least a life
But you couldn’t build lasting trust
And you couldn’t assemble furniture
That came with instructions
An entire 8x10 booklet
With numbered steps and illustrations
And you always said I was the one who needed to listen
You would scream in my face
Unaware of the jet black irony
Besides knowledge of literary devices, here’s
The ultimate difference between us:
When I say “listen” I mean, hear me
When you say “listen” you mean, obey
