what's it for?

men tend to be romantic about love
filled with unreal hopes and dreams.
Women are more practical –
after all, who’s left with the baby?
Men never think of this.
They want the woman,
possession of her body to satisfy
the urge of unseen genes .
Women need a safer place
to complete the program
laid down in their flesh.
Thus we stumble confused, uncertain,
towards our destiny
and our descendants.
