This is a poem addressing the issues todays man goes through in the wake of heightened feminism campaigns. It tends to cry out to the society to stop and think on how this negative gender perceptions are harming the society.

 

We shall lose him to the stars; we shall lose him to the skies,

He so yearns to belong, all he wants is to fly

Lose him to the strange customs and beliefs

Lose him to ideologies and femininity,

Lose him to modernity.

 

He was forced to recognize them, equality for all

He was obligated to call them equals

Pushed, shoved and fought in all corners

He was forced till he cracked, he allowed education to all

He widened the way, allowed them to lead

He gave them equal rights

 

He has sold his birthright

He no longer questions, he can’t make his own

He even sits and waits, comfortably all day

Waiting till she earns.

We shall lose him to the stars

We shall lose him to frailty,

Lose him to flimsy feminine excuses,

Lose him to indecision, too dainty to work

His voice is no longer heard, he cannot raise a hand to whip

Poor young one is watching, he learns he has no voice

It’s the era of the weaker sex, killing the ones they’ll need

 

 

We shall lose him; he will soon be just a name

The xx is carrying the day, poor xy

It’s too bad we are killing us!!
