The Great Divine Divide

If you know kids, you understand the gods,

The ancient Greek ones, female and the male.

They’re brats and bitches.  They are spoiled sods

And uncontrollable.  They always fail

As adults, unpredictable as men

And women, more like bullies in their teens

(The males) or gaggles who have lost and then

Lash out in sneaks and whispers, making tears and scenes

Unless their jealousies and jibes win through

(The foam-mouth females in their spites), the gals

Much more than loathsome ones whose crotches spew

Their seed around.  These haters have no pals.

  The guys make peace with enemies, forgive

    The other males.  That’s how God honchos live.
