Wings of Power

Is this world made only for males? Even History talks about 'His' Story only, But I am the creator, The creator should rule her creations, I am the Master of this magnificent world, Not a slave or serf to the feudal men, Power never goes with gender, Your prowess lies only in your cognizance, Facing Dictators for years and years, I have learnt to write my own fate, This domination and suppression for ages, Has sculptured my thoughts sharp, Though manist needles stitched my mouth, And tied my tongue with despotic credo, Nothing can stop my hubristic thoughts, Never the dry winds can swallow the mighty ocean, Denial of self respect is denial of life, Why confine me to a scullery? When you can eat why not cook? When you can wear why not wash? When you can force why not follow? This celestial sphere is boundless, Immense and unfathomable, My dreams are same, Measureless and undefined Your arbitrary chains can never pull my aspirations, When you curtail, an inch grows more, Discrimination for generations, Pricked by Rape, Dowry and Adultery, Wounds and sores all over burn, But never the heads of male chauvinists turn From time immemorial I was ruined, Female foeticide and infanticide always rule, Tradition and custom hinders my way, Antiquated and rusted walls erected all around, My cry for freedom hardly touches the blind ears, But the gravel hearted men always begrudges, Disparages and denigrates me, Am I so inferior in your eyes? With my muliebrity I brought you to this world, With my muscularity I can bring this world under me, Who are you to reserve my rights? Now I Emancipate myself from your clutches My wings are wide and extensive, They are not to flap and fan your royal slumber, I wanna fly high, Across the boundaries, Reach those alluring skies, And shout “ I am the most powerful creation of all” I am The Women.
