Pretty Men

The bossy, the cruel, the so called Alpha,

Giving permissions to 'their' lady, and

owning them as their property,

How would you justify the injustices

and shame done to  Droupadi? 

Yes, the biceps and triceps are all good, 

But having no 'body builder' body is also just fine na,

Not just the strong vocals, and well shaped beards,

The clean shaved ones are as great as the other,

They too can be valentine na. 

Men, are pretty, and pretty good too. 

The most masculine men to find

are not the ones with biceps, beards, and patriarchal mindset,

They are genuine, respectful, soft and never a threat. 

Not that masculine who never shows emotions and care,

But respects, laughs, doesn't insult, and doesn't stare. 

The idea of a perfect man can never be

someone who controls or dominates,

Who shouts and eliminates. 

The kind of men that are hard to find,

That may exist in stories and poetries like in mine.

As if the feather touches your skin,

the softness be like that,

As if the warmth wraps you in harsh winters.

As if you're walking through the forest,

And the sight of him relieves you 

Rather than sending a terrifying chill in your body,

Someone who feels like Sky Blue or Sea Green,

Rather than a colour that looks gaudy. 

The real men, are more than the fake, forced and conditioned masculinity,

The real men don't ridicule but respect femininity. 

They are soft, expressive and maybe clingy,

They are cute, pretty and pretty good too,

Yes, rare to find, there are left only a few. ♥️

my brother, male friends and maybe some random kind strangers too.)
