Get the Get

you stare wide eyed at us
pale skinned orthodox jews
our hair bundled, our features tight on our faces
strolling around Bedstuy in a listless race
this black baby carriage is a hearse

you are suspicious, you will never understand Shiksa
we speak in a language you do not understand.
I am tired of being hidden, say my legs to the grey stockings

soon, the rabbi comes, I whisper to him in the synagogue
Dear Mendel Epstein I am tired and I need a rest..Bring forth
your tasers, tiny ultra ringlets a fire.
