Only Brothels Poem by Mehta Hasmukh Amathaal

Only brothels.. Real relief
Friday,21st February 2020

Only brothels
can speak well
and heal
the troubled people

neither churches can reach
nor God's messenger can teach
about the healing power
it has to come from somewhere

who can sustain human hunger?
that arises from sex-urge failure
people find no easy answer
the society has no option to offer

even though it is question of hunger
for the human need and anger
women are compelled to take this profession
not with the honest intentions

we need to appreciate
and alleviate
by legalizing and providing health cover
this will grant us safe passage forever

let us not look at them with scant respect
it is real honorable act
that provides them good living
and provides some relief to the society as well
