Call me the Project Manager

If there is a broken man out there, I can fix him.

Then he will be capable of loving me.

Wounded from past relationships,

I can make a poultice that will kickstart the healing process.

Fear of commitment?

Once I lay out the blueprint for our lives together,

He will be ready to build a relationship, lifelong and lasting

Call me the Project Manager

Infidelity?

I will blind his eyes to other women and their tricks.

He will become immune to their devices.

Baby Mama Drama?

I will make her my ally

She will become my BFF

BeBe’s Kids?

They will mind their P’s and Q’s

Yes Ma’am. No Sir.

Call me the Project Manager

Meddling Mother?

He will get the wisdom that he must lay down the law to her.

Set the precedent.

Knucklehead Friends?

It will occur to him that he has outgrown these people

Unemployed, broke, bad credit?

My research will reveal that in his family tree,

There are some Jamaican roots

He will be blue-collar by day and entrepreneur by night

Call me the Project Manager

Issues, stumbling blocks, flaws, discrepancies, problems?

There’s got to be an app for that

If not, then I will create one

The Project Manager is on duty

Bring. Him. On.
