‘Writing a poem’
Do you think of me
as a symbol-
of terror or sex?
Do not chisel me out
at a far-off place.
My presence in front
of you is chock-full.
My dear little girl,
start a poem-
write it upon me.
Did you never think
of writing some
great epic poem
on me?
Are you afraid
of me?
When you feel the courage,
no body could stop you,
not even I…
you are not a frail lady.
Now, explore me,
reflect at what I am
to you.
All merits and loopholes-
jot that down.
You know,
I make mistakes
like you.
So write that, as
I have done in those poems
about you.
Make a room of your own,
carve a schedule
at your own credit.
You have mistaken
in thinking about
an imaginary intimidation
earlier. Why did you make
an enslaved fate?
Re-think about your
past life, you were
a parasite.
Now, act on your own
boldness, and
write down with
a candid handwriting
about me, don’t fear.
My little girl,
write my poem,
write it, accuse me,
praise me.
Take me to the scaffolds,
if there were serious mistakes,
or- make a valediction
if worthy works
had been done for you.
But, write the poem-
to empower you,
to bring your equal
incumbency
with me.
And, write the poem
to save your sisters and friends.
