This is forthrightly hitting the nail on the head. I couldn't have said it better. However, it plainly discusses laxity but says a lot more figuratively. Thanks, poetess.

When a man has said he will do a thing, he will! No need to keep reminding him every six months or so😉

Men lament that they have no time to do things needed being done. Yet, they sit wasting time, watching T.V. for hours at a time. Not associating it with their apparent laziness and lack of initiative. RoseAnn V. Shawiak WELL YES and no ..some do some other not! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! GREAT! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! 10+++++

So true. So true. Lenient and salient. A thought-provoking piece, dear poetess.

Men? Well why not say humans to include women too, and they must be, and avoid sexism.

'Men lament that they have no time' is a common refrain for men including me at times. This sweeping generalization might not be palatable to all. Thanks.

Is this poetry or a mere prosaic statement that tries to speak the truth, although not very clearly. For instance: 'needed being done' is bad English. The last two lines are clearly plain prose. It should be 'sheer laziness' not 'apparent'. Why be shy of speaking the truth?

I didn't realize you'd met me! No, I'm too busy on PH to watch Tv. Mind you I do copy my Cat's Buddhist philosophy a little too religiously. Good message. Tom Billsborough
