Ayappa, Now Say You! Poem by Bijay Kant Dubey

What that to do if Ayappa has his origins
From Mahadeva and Mohini,
Male forces culminating
Heterogeneously,
How the story at Sabri's hills
With Rama's visit?

But what has a woman devotee done
Waiting for years and years,
Ages and ages for His darshan,
Ayappa's, Lord Ayappa's darshan,
Will life pass as thus without seeing Him?

Women must be allowed as from
The same women men are born
And what if they enter the temple complex?
This is but gender bias though
With some reservations.
