The Juxtaposition Again.(the poetic edition)

Well here we have the juxtaposition reintroduced, however this approach is different from the previous one, in order to clarify the content we were asked to make a poem with the words "mortar and pestle" used as a metaphor for man and women.

 Poems not being my thing made this quite challenging. However after racking my brains, I managed to get this:


                                                     MORTAL AND PESTLE


                                                        They say they were perfectly fine off without us,
                                                             They say they have had it bad all the time,
                                                                    She even told me a million ways,
                                                                        In which we were mean,        
                                                              But the one which stuck in my head was,
                                                                        The metaphor she did use,
                                                    Saying women were the mortars in a of the two(Genders),          
                                                            That men were the pestle pounding eternally,
                                                     In that brief moment I thought what a hypocrite she was,
                                                                                     But nay,
                                                                             I do not dare say it,
                                                                For fear of life flashing before my eyes,
                                                                   So I keep this plain truth Shroud,
                                                                   Doing the chores she assigned me,
                                                                         Trying not to be so loud,
                                                                      (Oh come on I'm not a poet)

Hope you liked this post more coming soon.
