E MAIL TO DAMNISO LOPEZ 129


Submissively a man nods
A “Yes” to what is being spoken.
He did not hear what was said,
But nodded “Yes.”
A woman said to him,
“You must read Erasmus.”
He read Erasmus.
The woman sensing his submissive nature,
Put a pistol in his hand,
Said, “Shoot your children.”
He shot his children.
She said, “Shoot your wife.”
He shot his wife.
She said “Shoot yourself.”
He shot himself.
The woman no longer
Having someone submissive to dominate,
Picked up the pistol, shot herself.
