And lifted a lady’s skirt
With no one seeing us

Great poem with a hint or sprinkle of humor, filling in at all the right places, in the recipe of poetry. God bless poets, all-MJG.

I enjoyed reading this poem. It is well written and with a funny side lighter to read, but their is a truth to it which makes it even more worth reading.

I enjoyed how you included the old gods, and added a bit of humor. I also liked the vocabulary used in this poem. This was a refreshing poem, well done.

Ted, They will have to make me an honorary woman to make the appointment unassailable. Naah, I would have problems with my wife, daughter, son and ther rest of the macho members of the clan. By the way, would you know the compensation for the presidency of NOW? I guess being honorary it will just be an honoraria.

I think that you should run for president of the National Organization of Women. If they won't allow it then sue them for discrimination because you sure defend their rights with this one. Thanks

Well Eddie, I don't think that the poem is hilarious or just written for fun. Its highly meaningful and tells the story of the women humiliated by the elite Gods and then come the human right commissions and violations, the mythical characters of today's modern world. Great use of imagery in first stanza, mythology in second and modern sensibility in last stanza but the poem still remains homogeneous. This is an artful write indeed..........10/10. Regards Naseer
