Transgender

Transgender

A Poem by Muskan
"

They too deserve the respect

"
Again ,I saw those homosapiens
Bizarre weren't they
But unique were these beings

May address them his or her, I asked
Replied they with a laugh,
call us whatever,because atlast, we are unlikeable god's craft

A derisive laugh, i couldn't restraint,
not on them today,
but on my mentality that i realized isn't that sane

Then described she,herself as a woman
trapped inside the body of a man.
That makes her stand in the mid way,
with her family away.

With a tear in eye,smile on face,
She told that how disrespectful for them , is this place
from her sprawling bungalow , she at seven was thrown away
Now for her food,she begs to pay

Then came home i, with a feeling of awe for them
An INDIAN name Gauri Sawant i came through,
then curious became i ,to read that how
by her father,at eighteen
she was told that what a shame she always has been
to throw her away,he was then very keen
now a kind of activist and mother she is
that this world never have seen
On nobody's back,now she lean
with confidence , she faces all screen

Respect is what ,every human deserves
Don't worry, your God father is there to observe.

This is a sweet indulgence into the world we don't much think and address about and that talks about the great quality of wisdom build into you. Personally I understand their plight and pain, yet I feel they have also build a crudeness about themselves which doesn't make me go and hug them (I'm talking about the ones who extorts and harass public on roads, trains and right in their homes on bigger occasions). Yet not everyone is same and the humanity which exists in them is just like the ones in us, yet there's a stark naked division of equality itched right through us.

You're a good human, Muskan

Thank you so much, am glad u liked .. read more
It's really a great piece muskan but much above that is the motive And message conveyed. Every human and even animals deserve kindness and respect, no matter what their gender or background is. It's really Very nice💙

You're welcome:)
needs some smoothing out editing etc. but i really like the theme...yes, everyone needs to be respected...and at times i have thought i might be a lesbian trapped in a man's body...so who really knows what we are, and are we that sure?

Thank you for your words 😊
A very touching piece! You have done a very appreciable job by expressing their pain through your wonderful words. I became tearful while reading it. You have correctly described how the Indian society considers them as a bad omen. Loved it, your poem is surely an eye opener for all!
