love traps

 I used to believe in love

But instead I see I'm in a power trap

I've fallen into the snare of

A woman who acts as a sly cat

You see that is feminism at work

The power dynamic shifted

Whether by subtle means and trickery

She has got her way

Behind all that must be feelings

But I am just a tool

For that achievement

A means by which she gets what she needs

In her own relationship

Extra leverage if you will

I've been naive it seems

And fallen for her innocent

Guileless demeanor 

When she is a cunning spider

In disguise

And I've been a gullible fly
