OUR FRIEND THE ENEMY
To the Anti-Campaigners
Antis, for Wilson so gladly campaigning,
Antis campaigning so gaily for Hughes,
Would you object very much to explaining
What in the world are your views?
You whose conviction could never be shaken:
Voting incited a woman to roam;
Do I not see you—or am I mistaken—
Voteless, but far from the home?
Woman's inferior, so you insisted;
Over her faults and her failings you gloat.
Haven't you got things a little bit twisted,
Teaching these men how to vote?
You, who have told them their wives and their mothers
Had not political wisdom, you knew;
Why should they think you more wise than the others?
Why should they listen to you?
[ 83 ]
