This world is, because of the woman <br />this universe is, because of the woman <br />nothing exists without the woman <br />our existence is, because of the woman. <br /> <br />Why being a woman then <br />should be humiliation? <br />Why a woman then <br />should face indignation? <br />always the woman becomes the prey...? <br />always the woman has no say.....? <br /> <br />The woman is a mother, also a mother–in-law <br />the woman is a sister, also a sister-in-law <br />the woman has many roles to play <br />a daughter-in-law perfects that night & day. <br /> <br />Why then a woman does <br />torture another woman? <br />Why does a ma-in-law <br />torches a daughter in-law? <br />Why does a woman destroy another’s world? <br />Why does jealousy overcomes a sister-in-law? <br /> <br />In the woman, power is manifest, <br />yet she is unaware and that is a jest. <br />she becomes Durga when in rage <br />telling everyone, she is no sage <br />the woman is where, awakening is there <br />her absence creates crematoriums everywhere. <br /> <br /> <br />Why do then a woman abhor the birth of a female? <br />Wants a child, whose gender is male? <br />the male is indebted to her for the courage and life <br />yet no rewards for the woman, her entire life. <br /> <br />This is the story of the woman, full of anguish <br />Plight of a woman is because of another’s wish <br />Exploitation of the woman could not have taken place <br />Had a woman given the other a little more space.<br /><br />Tribhawan Kaul<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-women-4/
