請問有沒有人懂這首詩的意思呢?
看了很久還是不了解為什麼
"Everyone saw a fat nose on thick legs"的意思
附上原文
Barbie Doll
This girlchild was born as usual
and presented dolls that did pee-pee
and miniature GE stoves and irons
and wee lipsticks the color of cherry candy.
Then in the magic of puberty a classmate said:
You have a great big nose and fat legs.
She was healthy, tasted intelligent,
prossessed strong arms and back,
abundant sexual drive and manual dexterity.
She went to and fro apologizing.
Everyone saw a fat nose on thick legs.
She was advised to play coy,
exhorted to come on hearty,
exercise, diet, snile and wheedle.
Her good nature wore out
like a fan belt.
So she cut off her nose and her legs
and offered them up.
In the casket displayed on satin she lay
with the undertaker's cosmetics painted on,
a turned-up putty nose,
dressed in a pink and white nightie.
Doesn't she look pretty?everyone said.
Consummation at last.
To every woman a happy ending.
Marge Piercy
