A Feminist Dream

Pooja Sharma Rao
Hyderabad, India

Some day men (most of them)
would understand
gender as a mere
biological accident;

They would
see a soul
and a mind
beyond the cleavage;

They will rework
their dictionaries
to accept that
“No”, means no;

They would renounce
the power to decide
‘right’ and ‘wrong’
and make choices for her;

Be creative to exclude
mothers and sisters
from their
choicest abuses;

The ‘other’ would
be not more
not less
just different and equal;

Some day
men would not
be scared
to have a feminist dream !
