Free ' Hair ' Poem by Sheshu Babu

Free ' Hair '



Where body of women represents sin,
Where there is no alternative to win
There even free flow of ' hair '
Is a symbol of victory rare!

Let the curling ripples speak
That women are not at all weak:
They have the undaunted grit
To tackle oppressor's ' wit'....

They can lead a great movement
Against suppressive temperament
Of a male hegemonic society
That uses them as toys with humility...!

(In solidarity with Iranian activist Masih Alinejed, journalist exiled for her views fighting against force
