Poem
ARE YOU REALLY A HUMAN?? ? SHREYASH MUKHERJEE I don’t know why they didn’t allow me to breathe (George Floyd), I don’t know why they harassed me & no one was to defeat (Joseph), I was kicked out because of my bipolar disorder (Gary Davis), I am a victim of debt bondage, sadly I am a brick kiln worker (Puspal), Although being a man I cried as something was not proper, World would laugh at me so I sobbed in a corner, Why don’t you hear me cry, am I not your father?? I was taken from Darjeeling to Delhi to become a prostitute (Tina), I was tortured and hanged to death by the dowry institute (Rashika), They slit my throat as they didn’t want me to shout (Anita Cobby), They assaulted and set me on fire without a single doubt (Oksana), My fault was to demand a life without any fear, I am not just a story to be shared on twitter, Now why you all are silent, am I not your mother?? When jihad and my love were exiled to an eclipse (Shahin), When I was sexually abused only at the age of six (Lokesh), When I was declared undesirable because I was a jew (Hitler's victim), When I was murdered when tried to break the colour taboo (Timoli), Was there really my mistake, I always wonder, I finally believed there was no god but only a monster, Why don’t you stand beside me, am I not your brother?? Who put the iron rod in my genitals after molesting me (Jyoti), Who dislocated the neck of a three month old me (Afreen), Who threw acid on the face of a to be military doctor (Preeti Rathi), Who raped me 400 times by trapping me in a locker (Junko Furuta), I shouted, I pleaded with eyes full of tear, But I was not surprised that there was no one to hear, Why you feel ashamed to help me, am I not your sister?? Today when the relations are taking their last breath, Today when the humanity is kicked and paralysed to death, My soul knocks and inquires what is your resolution? Or is your heart and mind still in a delusion, Then smile and ask yourself are you really a human? Then smile and ask yourself are you really a human??
