Explaining Mansplaining (some of it anyway)

·Mental Journey

So many like me, Awkward as can be Hunger for a conversation With the opposite persuasion Suddenly you see A rare opportunity That woman there I see Has something in common with me So you make a small observation To start a conversation For those who get little occasion It’s a terrifying situation, Most of us don’t think we’re better, So please don’t be offended, We love to learn new things Just be gentle when pointing it out. We’re scared enough already.

Mental Journey

I am on a journey of the mind. Contemplating the universe on every scale, and doing a complete introspective exploration. I may never be a literary academic, but I share my humble thoughts in hope that they may inspire others.
