That Little Girl!

That Little Girl!

1 min
19


The gaiety soared beyond the ambit,

The villagers weren’t inspired for a bit,

The mellifluous cries of her in that sight,            

Reverberated through the moonlit night,

The colossal crowd surrounded the cot,

Waiting recklessly for the tot.


The taciturn ones were rejoicing,

The verbose were sanguine in expressing,

But very soon the clandestine was bared,

The puny paragon of feminity plunged

In the thin air of humility.

Her cries were the malediction for their masculinity


“Madness! Preposterous! “Cried the capricious men’s,

“Prerogative demands to kill”

Camaraderie absconded the cot,

The bellicose father left the mother void.

It was for not brouhaha,

But a malicious chimera.


That little girl screamed and howled

The pusillanimous women juxtaposed

The pristine soul was snatched from the mother

Lamentation was sole possession of her

But the banshee was still wandering

While the tradition men were slaying


The raging creek savoured the succulent soul

When the girl was ploughed into a death hole

The bed rocked relished the luscious flesh

Life persevered through hokum mesh

The quintessence of felinity

Was bamboozled by orthodoxy


This isn’t a rare exercise

But a peregrination of the practice

We kill our felines, murder their dreams,

And then yearn for the content of primes

The times won’t change

Unless we, the youth will not rage.
