she is as
much a woman
on this auspicious day
the pretty hijra
all decked up
hopeful about her
success the role
of womanhood
she essays
fair and lovely
in every way
demure darling
of the masses
the classes
the hijra goddess
of my screenplay
androgynous
mesmerizing
pirouetting
on the soul
of humanity
everyday
her Midas touch
sensitizes
my poetry
my wordplay
khushi
happiness
personified
she portrays
angelic beauty
an exotic hybrid
on the walkway
what god could
not create with her
own hands
she sculpted
her destiny
worthy of praise
from the ashes
of her burnt out
masculinity
a pretty woman
she did raise
her beauty
the toast of
all the lovers
of aesthetic
admiration
from mumbai to uk
a delicious delight
i dare say
