there is nothing
you can do
hide
your shame
your nakedness
with a piece
of cloth
thats what
they left for you
blow after blow
beaten
black and blue
mother India
you will rise
from the ashes
all anew
it was
only your bank
balance they
took from you
the greatest wealth
is intact
your motherhood
your virtue
