The soul aches     numbs the brain           Pictures float away of women              crying, laughing, ironing sheets thinking about jobs and ***          finding work and               cooking cheap spaghetti Playing with malnourished children      recovering from trauma, turmoil         turbulence, schizophrenia              from wombing life and giving                               garlands with open hands Copyright © Ghairo Daniels | Year Posted 2012

RETRENCHED WOMEN
The soul aches     numbs the brain           Pictures float away of women              crying, laughing, ironing sheets thinking about jobs and ***          finding work and               cooking cheap spaghetti Playing with malnourished children      recovering from trauma, turmoil         turbulence, schizophrenia              from wombing life and giving                               garlands with open hands Copyright © Ghairo Daniels | Year Posted 2012
