I remember reading about a blind girl who got raped very recently, in the newspaper. Maybe that incident gave way to your write. Those kind of crimes keep on increasing. One whole page in the newspaper occupies news of such incidents. That's really sad. You did a good job with writing this one though. Nicely put.

[Pragati Chaudhary]

Yes! These crimes are increasing day by day
At first the people choose night or dark to give way to these crimes but nowadays It's happening anytime, anywhere
Such a shame right!

Thankyou Zoe for understanding the Situation!

[Zoya]

This is like one of the horrific short stories doing the rounds on social media. The thought itself is scary, and I think your experimentation works in that regard.

[Pragati Chaudhary]

Thanks a lot Abdul
Yes! the thought is scary but the awareness also isn't up to the extent we need!
Thankyou again!

[Abdul Aziz]

Uhm! let me think....trying hard to remember my college level where i was taught Literal tools. Uhm... there is this figure of speech, is it Pun or Repetition? Uhm...!

Interesting!

Now wait... "Blinded again"

Prag, I almost feel this is a trick write. :) I feel sorry for the girl. I am sensitive to the situation. But how was she Blindfolded and then blinded again? Is the clause "Blinded again" intended to make the reader know that she is made blind upon her blindness by being blindfolded? There! Gotcha!


It is tricky. She is blind. No need for blindfold. Yet she got blinded again. How often this happens in our everyday world where people make fool of us.

This sounds like Allegory of the cave. A tint of present day world found in a blind girl. Raped!
I love this.

i just edited my comment because each time i ponder on those three words you just conceived as poem, am thrilled.

[Pragati Chaudhary]

Why are you thrilled? In amusement?

[Mirror]

In wonder, dear friend. Apply this aspect to all areas of life.

[Pragati Chaudhary]

Yeah I understand
Thankyou dear :)

this very very minimalist poem is so inspiring to me ...making such a clear and distinct shocking/horrifying moment of such an experience for her ... the helplessness i feel after your closing line is so final ... wow! i feel this Pragati .. big time.. well done says i! well done indeed!

I am glad you could understand her enigma!
