Indian Gay Pride Goes To Oprah -Hindustan Times

Hindustan Times
January 29, 2011

Indian society is finally gearing up to accept the rights of the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender community, and Manvendrasingh Gohil felt proud to report this to American television show host, Oprah Winfrey, during his second stint on her show last week. Gohil, the prince of Rajpipla, who shot to fame when revealed his homosexuality in 2002, featured on Oprah three years ago in a show entitled ‘Gay around the world’.

“Back then, decriminalisation of homosexuality had not happened, and Mumbai did not have a Pride March,” said Gohil, who said Winfrey was happy on hearing about it.

biologically
a virile
lusty libidinous
male she was born
than came the divine
realization as a woman
she metamorphosed
a hijra goddess was reborn
nubile seductive sensual
attractive she turned you on
driving you crazy androgyne
re awakening a new dawn
floating in the cosmic
waters of your fecund mind
this angelic swan
in a nebulous pond
you entered as you
climaxed wildly
imaginatively
provocatively
some steamy porn
hookah wine
the rubbaiyat
the hijra bond
neither man
nor woman
a testicular
tragedy
the missing
magic wand

in gratitude
in humility
to a queer
prince
who reads
my poem
embarrassingly
grins
love beyond
gender
is a godly layer
beneath
the soul of
a human skin
a broken bottle
of dreams
searching for
the elusive Djinn
a tantric tragedy
cosmic gyrations
hope on a spin
sometimes you lose
sometimes you win
out and in
from the window
of the soul
you peek within
emotions crackling
corrugated tin
what goes in
must go out
once just once
the unendurable
pain pathos
of a recycling bin

jab tum meri
haqeeqat sunoge
toh bewafa
madarchod waqt
se tum bhi daroge
jo main karta hoon
rat ke andhera main
kya tum bhi karoge
jis tarah har pal
mai marta hoon
kya tum bhi maroge
chal wat ja gandu
tuh kya jane mere
dil ka hal mere
gunahon
ka karz bahenchod
kya tum bharoge
laude main kaun hoon
kya hoon jan kar
kya karoge

this is to the slum hijras i shoot at traffic signals unfortunately they have no rich kids mask to hide the reality of their fucked circumstances...
