A World Without Women

One night in my reverie

A woman knocked and thundered

"You callous male people don't

Deserve our tenderness and love,

What you deserve is earth full of

Only men. Take this as your retribution".

I wake up, shocked at what I watched.

Morning comes and I see

The home bereft of my

Mom and wife.

I think of that woman's words

And rush out to see the condition of

My locale and guess what?

Other women have also evaporated.

Now that woman's face dances

in front of me and her rigorous

Saying reverberates in my mind

All I can do is just

Pray to God for

Giving me and other men

Some tenacity to go through

This terrorizing plight.

News reports depict the melting

Of women all around the

Globe even from places like

Antarctica a global catastrophe has

Erupted on the Earth leaving

All men as sole remnants here.

I tremble in fear and

Panic engulfs me I imagine

The things women do for

Their well-being, their love

That calms us and their

Unmatched dedication and care

That runs this global society

And ensures happiness on

This globe.

I sit down at the stairs

Powerless to do anything

I cry as God today defeated us

And made us realize the

Role of women in our lives

All men around me join

Their hands in asking the

Holy Spirit for forgiveness.

Another image of that woman

Flashes before me and her

Now softer voice asserts that

We now have to live our lives

In this world without women.
