Evolution of a Man


At six, I notice my first woman
I like her lovely painting
I hate her smarter art.
At ten I watch her
I  like her colourful trinkets
I hate her  good score cards
My ground games more interesting!
At twenty I visualize her
I like  pretty brows, the prettier skin
More in number than singular
I like that sense of owning many a pretty prize
I hate singular long lasting presence
My success ladder more precious!
The late twenties
I push pretty faces to social network sites
I begin to need one whose face holds a heart
At thirty I notice her
I like her pretty face less than I do her gray cells
I hate her shallow self
The late thirties
I am tired of anorexic , online smiles
I need a home maker, a mother
At forty  I see her
I like her substance, her cerebral links
I hate her wilt at my mid life payment crises
At fifty I see her at last anew
I see through grooves that never fit.

  2. It is a laudable writing.
    you think how a man perceives about women in different ages.Now,try to write how you,women think about a man .That will be interesting from woman writer.

  5. Interesting setup, especially the placement of the stanzas. Seems to reflect the ebb and flow of life.

    Hate seems to be a pretty strong emotion for a six year old boy. Jealousy may be more realistic. Perhaps instead of the like/hate binary, maybe have the narrator's emotions change from age to age to show his changes in maturity? I think it would help emphasize how he sees her from these different ages.

  7. Why do you watch everything from the brain? Feelings cant be brainy.

  8. True but then thoughts can't be always brainy too. What about soft heads and hard hearts?
