My ~Friend~

“oh look!
a pretty* girl”

*subjective
don’t assume so much

my ~friend~

why not instead
show respect
and treat her
like a human being

use your brain**

**the one in your head

think of her experience
endlessly accosted
by lotharios
on dalliance

decency
staunchly objects
to your crass
objectification

luckily
there is yet a bus
awaiting
at the local station

destination: evolution
join the ranks
of humankind

should you choose
to thus forgo
please know
you are no friend
of mine
