a civil war

a gender war

Americans against

Americans

a bugler sounds

the charge

home to become

a battlefield

a loose cannon fires

from the other side

they have joined ranks

marching to glory

how silly they look

coming right at us

we have baked

thousands of pies

and have weapons

they’ve yet to imagine

an army of bullies

who will cry when hit

run home to their mothers

tattle on us

say mommy I fell down

make it better

she will warn them

never again to play at war
