Skirt Poem by Nassy Fesharaki

Skirt

Those who made first dress
-and skirt
-were true and aware and honest
-to nature, our bodies, body parts
-they knew well, our needs
-for intake like drink
-and outing, taking-leak

They did not pretend
-for money, no fashion
-neither was for fooling
-no make up, violet hair-dying! ! !

They answered urgent needs
-coverage from cold and or heat,
-for defence was partly

They knew women's
-need, place
-vagina's location and power

Did not make shorts and pants
-zipping tight to stick
-taking off is a fight if not war

I recall when observed
-a woman in Mazar
-sat and faced the Shrine
-she sat and played with
-played with the rose bush
-everything was normal
-till she left wet behind
-same game was in Andes
-Cholita finished it near bus …

Felt sorry for those two
-who came on desert tour
-for peeing walked in pain
-long to hide and suffered
