ALL DRESSED UP
by
Gena Williams
after Sharon
McCullough’s All Dressed Up
I see you standing
there,
All dressed up.
Tall and statuesque,
Your self-control
amazing.
Your thoughts a
mystery,
But your composure
undeniable.
A woman to be seen and
never heard.
Many a man would love
to have
A woman like you.
Did you choose this
life of silence,
Of paralysis and
steel?
Do thoughts of freedom
run through
That pretty little
head?
If you could, would
you jump down
And run far away?
At night, when no
one’s looking,
Do you dance?
