A Woman's Life

Silly girl
you know better
than to play
with trucks.
Those are boys games
why don't you
play house
or play with
your barbies ?
they are much more
suitable.
.
Silly girl
you never learned
we live in a
man's world
why don't you
stay home ?
You should keep house
and raise his children.
It is much more
suitable.
