/// We were all much more innocent then,
and could joke of a bright-plumed peahen.
Fast approaching a time
when to cross–dress is crime,
this trans female competes with bird men!
/// Many females in nature are drab,
but with hormones acquired from a lab,
she grows colorful plumes
and the barnyard assumes
that this faker has always been fab.
/// And suppose (s)he runs into her ex
who can see that she’s now of his sex.
Would, of him, peacocks say:
Retroactively gay?
And thus his life, as well, this ruse wrecks.
/// So this woke, DEI, male pretender
masquerades in the masculine gender.
She will very soon learn
that no female should earn
a man’s pay just by stealing his splendor.
(To those readers to whom my intent was not obvious,
the above sentiments are satirical. ;>)
/// When a rooster is Coq of the walk,
all the hens at his plumage will gawk.
While he’s strutting his stuff,
if he’s not up to snuff,
then at mating the picky hens balk.
/// The price paid by male birds for their beauty
is that females choose who gets the booty.
Males will vie to look best;
if the female‘s impressed
she’ll agree to be his sweet patootie.
