Poetry:
Samana Pahad
Burkas
Only there are you and your moms
For decades and ages,
Entangled and intertwined
Inside black blue and dark burkas
Pensive, I am upon
You and your brutal rituals
And your life inside burkas
How miserable it is
I use to think
And how pitiable you are
And your captivated desires.
Hey/ Get knocked and awakened now
Each and every mother
Here to be aware ….
How imprisoned you were
Inside so called
Cultures cults and values
Of materials and non materials burkas
In different forms and disguises
Of kirat, Christian ,buddisist, muslim
jain and hindu veils
So called religious lines and scriptures
This or that philosophies
Are knitting the webs
Are knitting the webs
And caring you inside
Fundamental modern new
Post modern burkas
And now….
All moms from each
Nooks and corners
Don’t you have to
Tear the veils of
Materials and none materials
Which you are
Casting on
Willingly or unwillingly
