Feminism
Do I live in a right handed world ?
Does it matter anyway ?
Is it really male dominated ?
Is it invaded by chauvinistic pigs ?
Are electrons really negative?
And those macho protons, positive!
Who decided it should be that way?
But, perhaps, it is only hear say!
Listen, for instance, to the weather forecast:
"Today, no rains, no stormy news,
No reports of frozen women..."
But tomorrow, who knows ?
We shall be told through a poll
That we live on a female dominated
Anthropic cosmological Planet...
This Hand...
This hand has touched handrails
Of third World countries
This hand has even hailed
Some American cities!
This hand has handled some gales
Far away and in wintertime...
This hand has carved many bodies...
This hand has shaken your hand,
Has caught your perfume; smells so good!
With my hand, I write your name
And I see you graciously
Dancing with the music on the horizon!
O.U. Progress Report
Even though I am retired and all gray
I did not come here to take a holiday!
Of course we did walk on Nature’s trails
and talked to trees, to squirrels and to quail,
All things considered to be good for one’s health
and maybe to steal one hour from Death!
Female Anglo-Canadian Literature
was the topic of my wife’s lectures,
which took place at the University.
Since I am a man of activity
with computers I kept myself busy,
typed reports and sent them almost daily
Through e-mail to a lovely French lady;
met a few French classes eventually.
What did we see during the Spring Quarter
while being in East-Central America?
The Black Hills in South Dakota
Its Mount Rushmore resembling a poster,
The Biltmore Estate in North Carolina
with its Castle and its May flowers;
also Gallipolis and Marietta...
The cities of the Gauls and of La Fayette
The latter named after Marie-Antoinette
