hijras and me
are interconnected
cosmically
he is enslaved
i am partially free
we both have
broken wings
learning to fly
karmically
atomically
the hijra and me
are specks of dust
held by lifes poetry
he is a man
i am a man
biologically
but he has
the soul
of a woman
undeniably
i have a soul
of a poet
embedded
in the soul
of imagery
i share him with you
he shares you with me
