Drab Poem by Nassy Fesharaki

Drab

For years she
-has lived with
-her surname
- (four-zero to fifty.)

"Its meaning? " was questioned
- "Know is not shortened nor
-stands as acronym; possibly
-a fighter, warrior, cavalier."

How deep her ignorance!

It is dark and darkness
-dreary and lightless.

And this is exactly
-where she lives, who she is
-far beneath, stuck in.

And she is Scottish…

Hey racists and sexists
-one is not supreme
-just because of color
-blue eyes, blonde hair
-and whitish skin, pale,
-unless the wisdom is
-company to live with;
-the same goes for gender.
