Men and Boys
The kiddie-giggling boy-men types,
Who shape our tastes and fuel our gripes,
Are like a zebra with no stripes.
Their views today are painted on;
Those of the past are long, long gone.
They rule the culture like machines,
And serve up, bite-sized, on our screens,
An option menu for our dreams.
The bad ones will be swept away;
Nice shall prevail day after day.
