Con Fusion

The Wailing Wall is standing tall So men may bang their head and bawl But burka girls Must hide their curls So no one can see their tears fall

Saint Paul complained that sunshine in a woman's hair distracted the angels so women were required to cover their hair in cathedrals where sunlight seldom penetrated so Paul could be seen as the main attraction? Aloha!

Behind the burka, they have bitter stories to tell of their confinement and lack of freedom ! Why society and conventions impose such cruel restrictions on women! Humorous and thought provoking, Rico !
