Periods


Periods,

The shedding of the feminine tissue,

The many names it goes by,

“Aunt Flow is visiting”

But somehow we all have the same aunt.

“The Japanese are attacking!"

HAVE YOU EVER SEEN THE FLAG.

 

Ask any girl ….

Cramps feel as if,

THE

DEVIL

HIMSELF

WAS

SCRATCHING AND RIPPING AT YOUR INSIDES.

 

And the way women are expected to hide  to be ashamed of the GREATEST miracle

OF ALL LIFE.

Men say that it is gross,

But in reality, it is the very substance that

They floated around in for the first nine months

Of the premature lives.

Call it gross and any other word you can come up with,

But it just might be the one thing that might save your butt

when “you accidentally didn’t use a condom”

 

So DON’T say that it is disgusting, horrid, distasteful or nasty because you wouldn’t be here without it, 

So before you say your girlfriend is “PMSING” when she is mad,

I suggest you think of this before you say anything of the sort.
