What Is A Man? (God not this crap again)

What Is A Man? (God not this crap again)

A Poem by Baby Ricochet
"

What is a man? Unzip your fly and see what's there.

"

What is a man, f**k I don't know
I don't dwell upon it much
I am who I am, that's pretty much it
Maybe that's just a crutch

I can legally drink I can legally vote
I have service in the corps
A dick is dangling between my legs
I know just what it's for

Though I have a job and a girlfriend
Babies I've yet to make
Does that detail count against me
When manhood is at stake

I have gigantic pumped up muscles
Do I get extra points
or is that a childish self indulgence
A man I self anoint

What does that mean? I don't know
and no I just don't care
I do what I do, that's pretty much it
and I think that's fair

And though I could be an immature
ginormous spoiled brat
I take care of what I need to do
and really that's just that

Gender doesn`t mean a lot. It only guarantees certain biological and physical functions necessary to sustain continuity of a species. Trouble comes when it overrides the rest of our brain`s activity and a man does his thinking in his pants. You ain`t got that problem, Mark. P.

Thank you!
I can legally drink I can legally vote
I have service in the corps
A dick is dangling between my legs
I know just what it's for

Women can drink
And Vote as well
Boys can have dicks
So how can you tell???

And then there's that question, are you a man or are you the man???

Accomplishments don't make men and neither do genetics, Maturity may as well be excluded as well, What's a man?

So, what you've been given doesn't make you a man, that title has to be earned, and I'm near positive you've earned it, Ricochet.

Great write

All the "real men" in my life have done just that - take care of what was needed. As always, a straightforward message in a rhythmic form. Great!

Well, I didn't think it was you.

If you take care of what you need to eo, that makes you a man--but it doesn't make you anything more.
