The Great Stomach Upset

Sweet people you men are.
To bad you totally terrify me...
fascinate me...

I'm learning right now,
perhaps to your horror and surprise
the difference between
lusting and loving you sweet ones.

Learning that just because you are kind to me
doesn't mean you want to 'get in my pants,'
doesn't mean you want me to have your baby.

Perhaps you can see..
with that mind frame I have
why I'd be so terrified
to be befriended and be your friend.

BUT please persist
I need friends that are men
who will honor me as a woman
or
at least be in the their own process
of learning how to honor as a man

If I freak out
be gentle
I might even suggest
try again...
do give up.
