The Chinese once wrote
a philosophical note
about how the men shouldn't shirk.
The view that evolved
for changing a bulb
was many hands make the light work.
What they failed to say
in a practical way
was what is the role for a woman.
I saw on a wall
the following scrawl
probably a rather bad omen.
"While men and dogs
were meant to roam,
women and children
should stop at home."
