There were the columnists

Preparing your pasterns

When the skinny girl with a mantilla arrived

Searching for journalists

 

Some with microphone in hand

Others with pens and keyboards

Denouncing machismo and patriarchy

Searching until you find the human

 

A loud, clear voice called out to them

But they did not listen to the skinny girl

Preparing proposals and meetings with basil

So without hearing her, they silenced her

 

They looked at her with envy.

For slim, elegant and super fit

with mat, leggings and all the kit

but there was something in his hyena smile

 

We want respect and recognition

He was told out of the blue

No criticism or indoctrination

Go die in your pantheon

We don't want your opinion!
