77 CENTS (1950)
Held hostage in our husband’s homes
Only to be granted the freedom
that the patriarchy can control
Not yet allowed to open an account of our own
It’s our mid-century dream
to raise daughters that can be shown
One day, we will have a choice
over our body’s
reproductive zones
Until then, only to be seen in layers wearing
stockings and a garter
under our clothes
Keeping the seams straight
careful
not to harbor
a run
Replacing them again and again
until our days are done
Walking down the street
harassed if torn fiber shows
Back to the landfill
Where do the stockings end up?
No one really know
