 A New Woman

The story of a  bad, bad rope climber


Written at 11 years old

I got even stronger
Or at least i thought i did
Mommy wanted me to learn
More than English
I was a good fluent speaker
Of my language
Just had to learn to write and read it

Looks like i had a learning difficulty
In this area
Or a pimple that hurt me
Each time i tried to learn
It got me
OUCH

Or dyslexia in Arabic writing sprung to mind
Seriously
It all got a little hazy in there
Hasty with all the strict boundments of controll
The gum underneath the chairs
Dropped a pencil
Have a piece of fringe chopped
Lucky it was the fringe
I never want to cut it like a boy again
That look wasn't right for me
Who is now a baloon from steroids

There was just one last thing i had to conquer
THE ROPE

PE
Came again
All eyes on me

Eh
AH
EEEEEHHHHH
AHHHHH

Swinging my legs all around
Breathless
Lucky i didn't have asthma anymore

I still can't do it
The teacher tried to help my upper body strength
It wasn't working
I had a weak back
Weak shoulders
Bad arms

Then i could climb it

aaaaaaaaooooooww with even more ease
Now it was my hands

OWWWWWW
AAAAAOUUUUUCH

Yikes my hands
It hurts
Its grinding my poor hands
My fingers
No get me off the rrrrrrrrrrrroooooooope
Crash

Owwwwwww
Why are you so horrible to me
(tears)

You need to learn patience, gratitude and ambition young lady

Tu, tu, tu


Another day another EVIL ROPE

TU, Sulking was me again
Don't do this to me
GET ON THAT ROPE
WEAR THE GLOVES

I have a blister
GET UP THEEEERRRRR NOW
aaaaahhhhhmmmmm why
I TOLD YOU


Aaaaahhhh i am bigger than the rest

AHGHH
AHHHHHHHHHH

I CAN'T

All you hear is everyone ringing the bells
Nobody helped me
I was just being laughed at
Hard enough being bullied by everyone
Even by your own kind
I decided it was ignorance
People don't know what you're going through
They just have a jolly old good laugh

HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA

Aww you sit and cry ha ha ha ha ha ha ha


It wasn't fair
I tried so hard to climb the rope


Another day another rope
This time they had support knots
I reached the bell

Next time i wasn't allowed
I reached the bell
AT LAST I DID IT

THE EVIL ROPE
Why didn't they do that support thingy in the first place

GOODNESS
