The Aggressive Woman


is frequently let down, end-
ing up with fellows rather
be at football contests.

When she discovers the slick
sexual technician she sought,
and invests a ton of emotion,

he proves a shallow, lying
sonofabitch. Such a surprise? Go

to a cheap store and wonder
what you bought after? So why

not tutor a decent bloke?
It’s not Rocket Science, though

devilishly complex, nonetheless,
on the less mechanistic side.

After awarding his diploma,
go to the game with him,

and meet the other women,
who expected what they got.

They’re laughing anew, and only
softly ironic. And when the guys

catapult into the game
to scream, stay at
the tailgate party, where

the swelling cheers roll back
into talk of women and men.
But more bemused than acid.
