born as men
now women
a transformation
androgynous
soul planned
hijras dark
nubile
suntanned
outside
the cages
as they stand
waiting for a client
to hold his hand
the hijras fight
for survival
the hijras
last stand
hijra world
no mans land
cosmic chaos
sucked in
quicksand
hijra indias
untouchable
brand
her angst
collapse
or expand
short supply
great demand
the pain of unliving
she must withstand
stranded forever
from the mainland
