BE HENPECKED - A STRATEGY SO SMART

 

Though it's against macho men's norms,

I have no qualms,

To be attuned to her every crazy whim,

And fill her heart with joy to it's brim.


Deaf, dumb & blind like monkey toys,

At every provocation, keep my poise,

And happy to pay heed to all tantrums,

This human radio will play her anthem.


Always wait for her green signal,

Her rarest of rare nod makes me tingle,

Became a rabot, and gave her my  remote,

To her every proposal gave my faithful vote.


I wear 40 years of battle scars as medals,

Learnt a lesson that 'tis a folly to meddle,

If you want to pedal the marital cart,

Be 'henpecked', that is a strategy so smart.
