Ancient Routine Poem by Atef Ayadi

Ancient Routine



Why woman
Signal first
and
Man
Aught to respond?


why not the opposite?

why not both signal
Simultaneously
and both
has the right response?

why this routine,
forced
urge of simple needs
turns to a hostile war
of who should be on top
and who should be below?

why woman never tried to
cease
man's acheivements vocabulary
and turns them into beautiful feelings.

Why man
never tried
to feel
woman feeling
and build a new language or exotic feelings.

why the rush?
why the speed?
and why the distance?
