what a girl can't do

what a girl can't do

A Poem by Tumi
"

it about what girls can't do but boys can

"

Could a woman path the sea?

do the wonders

none ever did

 

Could she stand fearlessly at the front of death?

Make a challenge

For I can make a bet

Her words might be best

 

But could she pee from a moving bus

Or run around the house Without a top

 

Could she befriend a total stranger?

Without fear

Her life might be in danger

 

Could she shudder at the time?

spent at the toilet reading paper

while on the closet

 

Can she belch shamelessly

Like a fool

While fooling around

And think it’s cool

 

could she drink a river of wine?

Day by day

And still remain fine

 

could she catch up with a moving train

or bear the strongest pain

out of shame

 

could she bear a silly name?

or shudder at the hurtful words of her pair

 

without fear

could she strike an ugly pose?

And get the likes

Of a perfect post

 

Could she throw a friendly punch?

At her friends

Or clutch firmly on a moving truck

Penned with humour, there are a lot of challenges for a woman within this very entertaining poem. Think she might manage one or two, but would fail at all the rest. A very unusual and gripping write complemented by a good choice of graphic. Enjoyed reading! Thank you for sharing, Tumi...
