The scene was disgusting to my spirit,
My soul detests it;
I shuddered in fears
And scrunched myself in tears –
Oh, Mother, dear Mothers, I apologize!
Dignified sons cover their mother’s nakedness
But these came after you like hungry cocks.
“What is her crime, I asked?”
And one gallantly answered:
“A cockroach has come out of her hiding place
And we are having fun.”
And on a civilized ground under the sun
Where future leaders are trained –
No moralist stood up to defend, but all in one accord
Striped her naked to please their eyes –
Oh, leaders of ancient Israelites,
You who are quick in stoning the weak for their sins,
Have your wardrobes piled up with stinky skeletons.
