Stałam pod blokiem

[Mani23]

Hi everybody !

Somebody sent me this poem, I think it's in polish but I really can't understand what it says. Could anybody give me the sense in english or french please ?

Stałam pod blokiem
Szła baba z kokiem,
Zmierzyłyśmy się oczami
I futrami.
Zjeżyłyśmy
i cofłyśmy.Thank you very much !!!

I was standing by the block
a woman with topknot was walking by
we gave ourselves a once-over ( we measured each other with eyes)
and furs ( it makes more sense if you read the more direct translation from polish in the upper paranthesis )
we got mad
and backed away.

I hope that helped. Someone used a very colloquial language in this poem.

I would use chignon instead of topknot.
