I love this poem! It's so recognizable and funny in an ironic, bitter way.
The title is brilliant too, by the way; ' The Danger of Writing Defiant Verse' . Very clever, very funny, kinda tragic.

I don't think she liked him because he's a nice guy who would do anything for her. A sucker, A sap. Unforunatly this presents a horrible catch 22 for women. If they want to be with a Man who cares for and loves them they might find him square and boring. If they seek scumbag who will use them and abuse them they get what they seek. I like this poem because it makes me angry about women and love. I'm in love and I niether want to be boring or too "interesting" if you catch my meaning
