OR ZARUA PURIM - 2019

Or Zarua Purim 2019

by AR Eiser

Once a year seriousness is out the window

Outa sight

Frivolity lights up

This ancient Friends’ house of worship,

Our Rebbe magically transformed

And a bunch of rebbes similarly decked out,

With humor and song and groggers

We celebrate a crack in history

When the light of feminine righteousness shone bright,

Table-turning the power structure

The downtrodden prevailed against the odds,

Through cunning, beauty, and feminine strength,

Hoping the light of righteousness

Can strike soon and effectively,

Changing things for a better feminine future.
