A Sindhi Woman

Description:
 Bare foot, through the bazaar,
 And with the same undulant grace
 As the cloth blown back from her face,
 She glides with a stone jar
 High on her head
And not a ripple in her tread.
 Watching her cross erect
Stones, garbage, excrement and crumbs
 Of glass in the Karachi slums,
 I, with my stoop, reflect
 They stand most straight
 Who learn to walk beneath a weight.
