what do men want
you say i don't know
but i know
what men want
you ask what then
men want something else
other than what?
other than what
they have, of course

you admit, for some
men that's true
why waste what you have
worrying about what
you don't have and
what will you want
once you've lasso'd me
something else---or what?

There must be a poem in here somewhere.

I feel dizzy after reading this, Faith. Not your fault, it is the ambiguity of the male that has me teetering. Hah! Yep. We want what we haven't got. And women don't?

By the way, I understand the gist of this, once we have it, why then do we sniff around somewhere else? Good question. I think it is because we still have the hunter's blood in our veins and are never satisfied with the "catch." It is the hunter in us. I had that explained to me once and I have never forgotten it.

actually, i think it's human nature to want what you don't have or to think it's "greener on the other side"...but i just chose men for this poem because of the men i have met....doesn't mean they're all like that of course

I think the men that aren't like that are few and far between. I got lucky.
