What turns your head as you walk passed? <br /> <br />Although the wind is fairly fast, <br /> <br />Who do you gaze at walking by? <br /> <br />Not them, but my sisters and I. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Who do you check out from head to toe? <br /> <br />Obviously making yourself appear low, <br /> <br />You nudge the other guy to look at those walking by, <br /> <br />Not them, but my sisters and I. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Why do you stand there and watch us all, <br /> <br />Looking like a predator about to fall? <br /> <br />Almost dribbling staring with your head up high, <br /> <br />Not at them, but my sisters and I. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />My message to you brother is quite clear, <br /> <br />Stay right there, don't get to near, <br /> <br />Lower your gaze as you walk, <br /> <br />Don't expect us to stop and talk. <br /> <br />Don't turn your heads to glance at those walking by, <br /> <br />Them, as well as my sisters and I.<br /><br />Rukhsar Ahmed<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/lower-your-gaze-brother/
