Unveiled

(Inspired by the photograph, Arab Spring.

This photo provided on Friday Feb. 10, 2012 by World Press Photo, the 2012 World Press Photo of the year by Samuel Aranda, Spain, for The New York Times, shows a woman holding a wounded relative during protests against president Saleh in Sanaa.)

My eyes are screened...

But I see,

I see much more than you do.

My ears are clogged up...

But I hear,

I listen to that which you don't. 

My hands are gloved...

But I hold,

I hold that which you won't.

I'm swathed in black...

But I reflect,

I reflect more than you do.

I'm veiled,

But prevail!
