Sorority

MEN........we represent a minority in the Nursing workforce. There have been gender stereotypes and labelling over the years, and certainly many misconceptions, but probably the whole battle of the sexes nonsense or sex in the workplace magnetism, is the crux of most conflict. I suppose in the end, just like the "House of Cards", it's all about power.

Sorority

There are things of fantasy

In the duration of career,

New people arrive

One might flirt

Adore and leer,

After all, I'm in a business

As a 10 percent minority,

Just the same as a guy

Pledging a Sorority.

It's true, I'm telling you

Like Dachshunds in heat,

We're a firm minority

And as paramour's we're beat,

Because we are expected

To work right along side,

Gorgeous, beautiful chicks

Who will be someone else's bride.

It's still going on

Oh yes, I can assure,

Promotion of the young

If they're sexy. and endure,

Sure, they have to be bright

As in, the preservation of the species,

And like the rest of us veterans

They just have to love, feces.

Because that is the origin

Of the Underside of nursing,

All that crap we put up with

In spite of our cursing,

Like it was previously laid out

Way back when, by this writer,

In nineteen-ninety two

When things lookied so much brighter.

That was 22 years ago

And this writer grew older,

Still expounding the same message

Albeit, a little bolder,

Because I'll be retiring

A couple of years down the line,

Younger guys, just like me

Must choose and assign.

Sure, this might sound sexist

But WE are the minority,

And those females will decide

Exactly, who is in the Sorority.
