Verdict For Szymborska-Lot's Wife
Even though you had some reasons
to see who checked your backs
Stone-
Against God executed orders
Stone-
Why didn't you hold Lot's hand?
Stone-
Why didn't you throw your sandal-
Whose wrap you trie to tie?
stone-
And hung on Lot's shoulders?
Imagine-
Staring at Your husband's neck
The neck-
Which you've touched all along
Imagine-
Romancing before a blaze!
Rock-
God's mind never changes
Stone-
Your bundle, distance the Torpor
Setting the bundle down and curiosity
All-
Lame excuses before nervous Conditions
Stone-
Serpents spiders field mice baby vultures
That-
Chose your lot as the champions
Stone-
Creeping and hoping the evil black
No evil no good but the devil's ark
Stone-
Lot there to share your thoughts
But-
You stopped keeping your mother-
Inside the heart-Two daughters
Stone-
Involuntary turn with reasons-
Argument on behalf of mothers-
No-
Present our sober seasons
Stone-
There was no rock you're one
For the-
Hard to listen difficult to honour
The Rock-
No excuse you chose the City-
You fell inspecting the sour
A hillock-
No, no. You remained in pity,
Seeing your own damages
Stone-
With your eyes wide open-
To receive the backup darkness
No struggle God feted silence
Stone-
That you turned around and around
No-
For God's wrath a perfect lot-
No man struggled against
Even your Lot.
You never danced ewe no see
Stone-
You expressed depress for-
The motherless generations.
