One in Seven Billion?
Seven billion divide by two:
3.5 billion men.
Cut out the homosexuals,
3.4 billion.
Then the married / taken men,
2 billion.
Those too young, too old
Too self-absorbed,
500 million.
Divorced, psychotic,
Imprisoned, unbalanced,
400 million.
Uneducated loafers, drinkers,
Those in love with computers,
300 million.
Still Mommy’s Little Soldier,
Car-mad, sport-mad,
200 million.
Live in a different country,
Different ethics, different religion,
2 million.
Holding someone else’s children,
STDs, and left over baggage,
1 million.
Speak a different language,
Live in a different city,
20 000.
Liars, fighters, defilers,
Manipulators,
10 000.
Confirmed bachelors, wanderers,
Strippers, teasers,
2000.
Money-focused,
Work obsessed,
10.
Poor self esteem,
Smokers, abusers, losers.
Really, statistically; seriously;
Is there one in seven billion?
Or is reality compromise?
