game of love
the game must change
from time to time
or else it would
get boring
but i would rather
call love by
any other name
a woman should be
more to man than
just a passing fancy
but i suspect that
basically some men
see things
quite differently

The game of men versus women maybe can be aletered a bit by eye opening poems such as this one! Nicely written

Love your poem, F.
This line makes me wonder:
*a woman should be
more to man than
just a passing fancy
Maybe some women actually go out of their way to be a passing fancy, thus crumbling the hard-earned efforts of feminist progress.....just a thought.
Must say, free-flowing is the ink from your pen...write on!
Thanks for the share :-)

Ps. Just curious here. How would you propose changing the game of love that it no longer becomes boring? I take it you're addressing this from the the point of monogamy, are you not?

Glad you enjoyed my poem, Tidespotter. Thank you for your comments.
A woman who allows herself to be used is probably addicted to romance,sex or emotional pain if it happens often.
As for the change I refer to here I would say while it seems to be true that you can't find in numbers what you can't find in one, having a half of dozen suitors makes for an exciting lovelife.
Additionally, sometimes one loves while the other party allows themself to be loved. Sometimes, one "plays hard to get" as opposed to giving their partner the security of knowing they are loved and desired. That is all I meant.
