Saddening Wonder

A child was born, after eternal pain

But the child was a girl

The days passed and the years rolled

The infant become a girl

She was a girl who cared for all

She was bargained at her marriage...

But she could not adjust into the life

Of a cow that was tied to the

Wooden poles of her husband's world

She died in silence, without any

Sympathetic tears in her memory...

A wise man at her funeral wondered,

Where the land of Durga was heading towards...?
