Divroce Is A Long Way. Poem by MOHAMMAD SKATI

SHE CAME BACK HOME AFTER SHE LEFT HER WORK AT ALMOST THREE O'CLOCK AFTERNOON IN A HURRY. SHE MADE UP HER MIND TO GET DIVORCE FROM THAT MAN WHO TOILED HER AND MADE HER SAD. SHE THOUGHT THAT DIVORCE WOULD BE IN ONE SESSION BUT HER CALCULATIONS WERE ALL WRONG. DIVORCE IS NOT EASY AS SHE THINKS. I TOLD HER: 'IT'S A LONG WAY.' INSTEAD SHE WENT ON UNTIL WHAT WE SCARED HAD HAPPENED. SHE WAS GIVEN MORE TIME TO THINK WELL. SHE GOT VERY SAD. I TRIED TO COMFORT HER THAT NEXT SESSION WILL BE DIFFERENT. SHE GOT A LITTLE BIT HAPPY. I TRIED TO LET HER FORGET AND THAT WHAT HAPPENED. SHE TURNED HER BACK TO WATCH A NIGHT MOVIE. EVERYTHING WENT WELL.
