Celebrating - the every day leaders

every day leader-Lingaraju the auto driver

who raped you.?

Who raped you?
i need to know..
was it just the six?
Or were there more?

Was it God?
who made you a woman,
was it your nationality?
a country that has always made  you second to "man"
was it the alcohol?
which makes  most males into animals.
was it bollywood?
where every woman is an "item" either zandu balm or fevicol,
was it media?
which rapes and reaps every thing for TRP
was it the police?
which works only for the VIP
was it the judiciary?
for whom you are a case number
was it EVERY political party?
for whom you are an aadhar number
was it our society?
which worships the goddess and rapes the devotee

Tell me, nameless one..
for i am numb, maimed,scarred, devastated and frighetened.
tell me who raped you?
was it just the six?
or were there more?

that's when it struck me that deafness is not inability hear, but an inability to listen, and so called being dumb is not lack of ability to speak but the inability to articulate and may be being blind is not the inability to see , but an inability to sense......

where art thou?

when i really really look for some sign that you are there and that you care,

there is little evidence of the same
