Optional title
Hijab and the Christian World..

the only garment
that gives the
christian world
unending
sleepless
nights
over the hijab
the white world
fights
choking
the spirituality
of a muslim
woman's rights
wearing the hijab
the white mans
wrath excites
a garment
of modesty
they love to spite
the hijab
a beauty in
spectral light
gets the
European angst
uptight
banning
it from public places
condemning it
like a terrorist garment
the helpless muslim
womans plight
