A Man Out Of Time? (Part.2)

Shaunmatthewcpoetry

Skinny boys are pushed as the new screen heroes,

I can't buy into most of these clown panted zeroes.

Like to watch old action films and lift weights?

How many of us suddenly feel out of place?

Never painted my nails or wore skinny jeans,

This isn't as disrespectful as it initially seems.

Let people do what they want, I don't care,

But don't point the finger and poke the bear.

Weak people are much easier to control,

Agendas are at play so try to stay whole.

They now call masculinity toxic,

For just being manly, stop it!

    The pendulum swings and today the idea of male is unpopular as heard in this poem. It speaks of femininity being emphasized and the desire to return to the masculine. Nicely written it makes its point well.
