Poem 103 of 230: EQUAL AWARD-PAY
“Equal average-pay,”
I heard her say.
But males, on average, are just as smart
And physically stronger -
One can see it at sport;
I’m sure she’s wrong there.
In clarification,
I should add on
That any applying woman, best prepared
For the tasks of work that lay,
Should win work, and receive
Equal award-pay.
