Poor Girl

Poor Girl

A Poem by Dupur Mitra

poor girls are not beautiful

because poor girls are weak
poor girls are shrunk
their body has emaciated
even their b***s are sapless

and also their laugh
does not laugh like flowers

because they are poor

"even their b***s are sapless"....that line made me laugh because it just gave me a vivid image in my head of some girl walking down the street...anyway thank you for writing this. It has a serious truth behind it that I adore.

You're from Banglidesh so you've seen real poverty. I've been to Afghanistan so I've seen real poverty. The west doesn't know what it's missing. Great poem doc.

Poverty is not beautiful, though some claim it is. Poverty is degrading and ugly. And no flowers colour the laughter of poor girls.

i agree and dont at the same time, because i am poor and very fat. but i guess it depends on where you are talking about with this. and i agree. i feel like this is very well written, and would love to see me stuff like this.

Now THIS, Dupur, is what I look for when offering reviews. The concept is haunting and shrieks of truth as seen through the eyes of those afflicted by poverty. I absolutely loved this one!
