Cave Men

I personally think men are bored today. There are no challenges to keep the testosterone flowing. In the old days there were Saber tooth tigers to run from, Buffalo to hunt, cabins to build and claim jumpers to fight. Today what's a man to do? ( besides cheer at a football game or watch a Die Hard movie and wish he were in the middle of it all).

So here's your challenge.

Take a typical day of a man in your life, ( or your own life) and while sticking to truth and what he really faces each day, use metaphor, and poetic license to make his day one any cave man would have been proud to have conquered.

rules:
No erotica or foul language, keep it G rated.
one poem per person no prewrites.
you may use whatever form you choose.
have fun
