ManCode Blog: A Sweet Tweet for Lovable Lions?

I must confess to being aghast at some twitter ManCode rants
Which she seems to think apply to any docile man in pants
In them she lists detractions of bad attitude and wet towels
And even refers indiscreetly to smells emanating from bowels

It seems that any poor husband can be considered fair game
Although her list of supposed deficiencies is certainly lame
For it should be obvious to all that a married man is a treasure
Who should be nurtured and enjoyed at a wife’s fulsome leisure

Any minor shortcomings perceived in her prototype Clark Gable
Should be set against the obvious merits he has brought to the table
For such mature men are indeed a wonder, a marvel and even a delight
Who often keep their cool in the face of behaviour which may be a fright?

You see a married man likes to dominate like a Lion in his jungle clearing
And not be constantly upset by cruel jibes and taunts that he is hearing
So Ladies keep your cougar fantasies for such roles as Sex and the City
For you often lack an appreciation of ‘real’ men, which is more the pity.

Don’t fret when your man drinks beer and constantly passes wind
As these are mere natural phenomenon and so he has not really sinned
What’s the problem with a wet towel or pee mark on the toilet floor?
When the poor man’s eyesight is probably failing, so need I say more?

So blog with your female friends if you must about becoming a writer
But lay off the bad vibes about the husband and his being a blighter
Men are indeed caring, strong, funny and can be very protective
Which a woman should acknowledge when she tries to be selective.

Therefore, be mindful of any sentiments expressed however profound
As men for the most part are sensitive, sporty and genuinely sound
So tweet them with dignity, pride and a sweet love never flagging
Especially when key parts of them may be old, tired and sagging.

Addendum:

This verse is intended only to amuse and is written for no fee,
But if its sentiments and tone ring true, then so let it be
For it’s really no harm to study it and to give it some thought
As some women don’t treasure their men as much as they ought.

Note: Some minor amendments made in August in response to twitter comments which are all gratefully acknowledged.
