A Man's World

In the beginning there was man,
And ever since there has been man.
A man, defined by strength and valour,
Courage and splendour,
Magnificence and extravagance.

He conquered other beasts,
He subdued the lion in a circus
And in India he made the largest land animal his servant.

He rides on the strength of horses,
And on these fearless beasts, he conquered kingdoms.
In Eastern Africa, he kills the king of the jungle as a rite of passage,
In Asia, he charmed the most deceitful of them all, the serpent.

He beat others of is kind into submission,
And for those whose manly pride was too great, he killed them.
Authority is his sceptre, Ego his shield.

He conquered it all, He is King, He is a lord.

All except one,
One who cannot be conquered by swords
One who cannot be beaten into loving submission, 
One who cannot be tamed unless he chooses to,
One who will not pay homage unless he chooses so.
The only one to whom man willingly subdues to,
The only one who can save him,
From the wilderness of lust and power.
The greater one, The majestic one,
 

The Wo-Man
