This poem describes lonely women who gossip and take care of each other like mothers in the absence of their husbands. It depicts their daily lives through sensory details like the smells of onions, milk, and weak tea as they knead meat, have their hair down, and wear bright fabrics while drinking coffee and eating biscuits. They pass the time by gossiping about scandals and what people are saying about others in the community.
