With A Word
With a simple word
I lose every argument
No matter how plausible or valid my claims
With a simple word
I have no education
No knowledge, perception or truth
With a simple word
I am denied or lose employment
With a simple word
I am incapable of love
Or natural human needs
With a simple word
Women rally fear
And violence from men
Not a word of science
Nor precisely defined
With seeming no meaning
This cutting word I find
That no matter how hard I try
To treat this ailment of mine
With this simple word
I can never be cured
And it may sound absurd
That however you say
I hear this small word
Synonymous with hate!
