*
don't complain of poverty -
hear, Egypt?
don't dare talk of poverty -
to me!
have a change of attitude -
hear, Egypt?
change your disposition
towards me!
and towards my sisters
in your cages -
palaces, apartments, houses, huts;
and towards my sisters -
with a bit more freedom -
how you view them
just a
piece of ****.
mutilated wombs of this land's mothers;
mutilated feelings of cowed daughters;
mutilated, young and old,
for eons;
caged, inflated, broken, violated,--
_
don't you dare -
hint of poverty -
to me.
