Speak to Those Who Know You
why seek females to talk to
how strange,
i could call a male friend
one who understands my name
one,
who would play similar games
one,
who had lived my change
why seek females to talk to
with the soft comfort
and their delicious care
they way they pump up your ego –
with newly painted fresh air
what solution is that
it is neither boxed
nor is it flat
if it is advice i want and that i need
from friends who i speak to –
in which i believe
why seek female sunshine
when,
it so quickly turns to night
come on,
use your intelligence –
and speak to those that know you
