seeing shocking brutality,
A rape is happening every day,
Are we really safe?
Kolkata doctor’s murder and rape stirs endless fright
and haunts our nights.
In Uttarakhand, a nurse was lost to violence, raped and killed,
And now a minor girl gangraped in a bus,
How many more Nirbhayas will be sacrificed?
How many of us must suffer and die,
Before this grotesque horror finally says goodbye?
5 months or 50 years,
It's all meat and bones,
served on the devil's plate.
They call it rape,
But she is the one
enduring the hate.
Wars ought to be waged
Against those who brutalize her sacred space without consent,
Ripping away her dignity with hands of violence,
violated and shamed,
Stripped of her voice,
free will and choice
In the battlefields of assault.
Will you all still remain silent?
Will you keep quiet, blaming clothes or her fate,
Or will you stand and
fight for our daughters, before it's too late?
Love this. Women are unsafe. These incidents are so scary.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely, that’s why we must speak up and demand change to create a safer world. In a culture where women are seen as family honor instead of individuals with rights and autonomy, men grow up without understanding consent, boundaries, and agency.
DeleteWell described. We should teach our sons to respect and protect every single woman

DeleteThank you, Priyanka, for your thoughtful comment. Teaching respect is important, and it's equally important that our sons see women as equals,
with the same autonomy, rights, and personal agency that they themselves possess.
Powerful words👏👏
ReplyDeleteNow women will have to protect themselves... because the devil's mentality can not change.
Yes
