Only Royals Bleed Blue

We were to Reach our Goal in steps and stages,

Every single bungle Counts in Roars and Rages.

 All the galore, and the inestimable frenzy,

Now Feels like a lover's nipped off  Daisy.

The obnoxious retorts seem to be wheezing out,

When the Men In Blue kneeled down in a defamed bout.

With those bucket-load of money, one needs to Pay a Heavy Prize,

Lady Luck isn't always sweet as honey - Yells the world to Sympathize.

I am Proud of my team and a teary-eyed captain who is Indomitable,

The  tooth and nail combat could Never Denounce the Glory Unforgettable.

I am Proud of that Magical blow of a Batsman who Declares it loud and clear,

Blanched, mourning and quiet - Where goes in waste  his brazen cheer?

  

I am Proud of my Patriots who bit the dust in Blue Blood

Prejudices and Incrimination always Symphonizes with the stick-in-the-mud.

Our Crying Shame is a Spurious Media that Trends Mortification,

In Gluttony of Succession, Couldn't We Spare Inflaming the Abrasion? 

Competitor Swoops in to Overpower,

Reprisal is inbred in Us - Soon a Voice Will Raise Without a Quiver.

Athlete's  praxis still Jingles 'We Won't Give It Back',

The Trophy of Triumph Will be Reinstated with a Kick Smack.

Voice Of A Dauntless Daughter

Acknowledgement

Can we wake up to a wonderful day when we recall and acknowledge the capabilities of our fellow human beings?? Can we make it a Better, Safer and Holier place for our Mothers, Daughters and Sisters to walk around without the fear of Abuse and Homicide in broad day light?? If standing up for a doormat, a victim of sexual assault and a prostitute criticizes and penalizes the sentiments of a Dormant Feminist dwelling in a society beaten down by Male Supremacists, we should perhaps STOP celebrating International Women's Day. One must NOT forget - many strong women have left behind the exemplar of their COURAGE to accept the EMOTIONAL and PHYSICAL war that they had to undergo. They have been ennobled by the SCARS they ENDURED, the Barbaric extents of torments that they have been through. I have penned my thoughts in dedication to all those beautiful faces lost in the oblivion of Ugly Sexism and Unmitigated Ignominy. On this day, every day and forever - remember them, for the share of Honor and the Glory that they have fetched the race for a development unprecedented in history, for the given length of time. Do not recollect their Sacrifice in a paroxysm of Disgrace and Sympathy. Every twenty minutes when a rape occurs in our country, it is not a Shame for our Nation's Daughters. It's a Defeat for the whole Mankind.

 

I need to feel Safe, I need to be Alright.

From Womb to Earth, I Battle my Plight.

My Mother has seen the worst of days Securing her amniotic satchel,

Conception of a Girl Child is the reason why society Chooses to Grumble.

I am Nirbhaya, and I Need to feel Safe.

As I Bring my tiny feet forward,

Beckons a New Challenge - an Unpleasant voyage an Unknown hazard.

On my path to Literacy and Education,

 I face Despondency from a neighborhood devoid of Emancipation.

I am the Nation's Daughter and I Need to be alright.

My bosoms Dilate and those frilly frocks Refuse to fit anymore...

When my Chastity Spews cardinal, it Traverses through the cradle and floor.

They term it as familiarization to 'Womanhood',

Thus my Degradation turns Torturous and Crude.

I Utter not a word in Retaliation,

Soon Gender Inequality Oppresses me in Deepest Trepidation.

 I Need to feel safe, and I truly Need to be alright.

One fine day, they Bargain over my Existence in a haste,

And I am asked to Leave my childhood nest.

But it's the Onerous Dowry,

That puts my Conjugal future to Untold Misery.

 I am Elated that I'm Free to pick up a jeans and a tee;

Until the sermons betoken Fallacious Domination,

The world Lights candles, Mobs and Prays;  but Crippled and Powerless I Weep in Eternal Damnation.

I Hope against Hopes in my Unconsciousness - That I'll be alright.

A Sea full of Predators Lecture on what my Sisters Must NOT wear ,

Only to Disrobe their Dignity and a Gift of Luxuriance to Smear.

Now that my Body and Soul is Abused to the Zenith of Brutality;

The State Puts a BAN on Gruesome Reality.

A Victim should NEITHER Fight back NOR Exercise Self-Defense!

Explains an Imperious Perpetrator Justifying his Offense.

I Plead him every day to Spare me the Agony so that I can be alright.

We are Raised in a community that is Selective of Consuming animal flesh,

What about those Beasts who Wolf the Weak Raw with Merciless Thresh??

We Live in an age Tarnished with Misogyny, Stigma and Submission;

A Lost Trust in Humanity is our Universal  Shame and Malediction.

 I am a Woman, and this is my Pledge to a Despairing Patriarchy  -

Shield Me with the Oath of Honor and Liberty if not a Reversal to Matriarchy.

 I am Nirbhaya, and I Need to feel safe. I Need to be alright!
