Women's intuition
Some people can tell
 Some not so well
 But in Caesar and Oedipus
 The women can tell very well
 They use intuition
 To foretell the future
 But alas
 Their husbands still don't listen
 They are treated poorly
 Like dirt on the floor
 So hopefully the men regret
 Their deeds in hell
 
 Portia
 Brutus' wife
 Had a 'man's mind but a women's might'
 Yet
 Brutus still put up a fight
 She foretold of a 'bustling rumor'
 That in turn came true
 So Brutus can't say he never knew
 She was so faithful
 Loved her husband so well
 She gave a 'voluntary wound'
 To prove her right to know
 Of the conspiracy
 That came to show
 Very shortly after
 
 Calpurnia
 Caesar's wife
 Had a bad dream of Caesar dying
 Sadly Caesar thought
 She was lying
 She saw the 'drizzled blood' in the air
 But he still
 Didn't care
 And when it came true
 Caesar knew
 To trust his wife
 But sadly, that moment came 
 When he lost his life
 
 
 
 Jocasta 
 Oedipus' wife
 Predicts the truth
 But isn't believed
 She lets her doubts deceive 
 Her innate knowledge
 Of her husbands death
 She believes that,
 'Chance rules our lives'
 But chance isn't in her prediction
 Cause it was true
 
 Portia, Calpurnia, and Jocasta
 Used this intuition
 To foretell the future
 In this situation
 It still ended in tragedy
 But they tried to prevent it all 
 Sadly they were ignored
 So their husbands did fall
 And it came
 The end of it all
