Educated and Liberated Women In Love

We no longer have to

Sweat and slave

Over the kitchen stove each day

Sweep the kitchen

Vacuum the living room

Be waiting by the door

With that martini for when husband comes home

We women

Are now liberated

Now we’re educated

We can do whatever we want

Voting, driving, dancing in the park

However,

When you fall hard and swift for a guy

None of that matters anymore

We toss our education and liberation

Right out the door

Making supper for him

Tutoring him

Trying to clean-up his apartment (but good luck with that)

Using baby words like

Little Itty Bitty Booty Biskins

Educated and liberated women

Can be brought to their knees

We can crumble

We can topple

For the love

Of our guy
