Being Born a Woman In India Is The Greatest Punishment


burnt alive
for insufficient
dowry after
marriage
a thought
a crime
now a regular
event ..
acid thrown
on her face
for refusing
to marry you
to her detriment
gang raped
sodomized
kidnapped
sold as a
prostitute
in red light
areas
is how life
went ..
a bar dancer
she wants to be
to deter her rules
they will amend
but to reduce
crimes 'against
women sadly
they cant prevent
rules were to safe
guard politicians
criminals is what
rules were meant

god save girl children
their first step advent '
tears and lament


hope humanity
broken into million fragment
