Are You Allowed To Go Barefoot At The Movies?

March 8

"Fragile, wealthy woman,

array of paradise are a speck of guilt
also agl the eyes of God despite

your holy war for emancipation.

smashed your beauty and love remains a skeleton
but still cries vengeance

and only you can still cry,
then you turn and see your children again,
then you turn around and say you do not know
shut up and wonder
and then you become as big as the earth. "
Alda Merini
