Grateful to Dave Bonta for his entry at The Morning Porch which inspired this poem, and for sharing “proud women in bright wrappers” at Via Negativa. For those unfamiliar with this type of collage art (which was common in north Africa, particularly during the 1970s), there is a search link at the end of the Via Negativa post which should bring up some samples.
Hey, I enjoyed very much the passage of the proud women. Sometimes when I look at proud women on our streets I feel sorry. I feel happy and yet very sad for they are a great symbol for running away from simplicity. Man have always been a bit off from that
