gender

(this is word observation)



why is it
she, would hold both she and he
but he, is only he?
and why is it
her, would claim both her and he
yet him, is only him?
 


feminine agrees to men
but masculine is only man/men
even female, shows us male
but male, is only male
 


I don’t see a balance
in a world of modern (men) word
for in gender language
it does seem “dominate” is man/men
 


women, it seems balance men
yet men, prefer restricted
even emotion is men
though women are usually faulted
 


can there ever be balance
between the genders
within the English language?
maybe in time, a girl will rewrite the words
