Gwendolyn Brooks - The Independent Man

Gwendolyn Brooks - The Independent Man

Now who could take you off to tiny life br In one room or in two rooms or in three br And cork you smartly, like the flask of wine br You are? Not any woman. Not a wife. br You'd let her twirl you, give her a good glee br Showing your leaping ruby to a friend. br Though twirling would be meek. Since not a cork br Could you allow, for being made so free. br br A woman would be wise to think it well br If once a week you only rang the bell.
