Lela Moore, writing in the New York Times.
Some time apart can really bless
a Christian union under stress.
Although in love as man and wife,
the two in tandem will find strife.
And so a time and place reserved
for women keeps their love preserved.
For let us face it, all you guys --
sometimes we are not such a prize.
But have a care, you celebrants,
to shun those ancient revenants
whose women-only cultish fads
led to the excess of Maenads!
