Muted Poem by Aparna Chatterjee

Muted



Separated
Widowed
Divorced
Women
With their
Muted
Sex drives

Where do they
Go to satiate
Their drives?

Or do they remain
Frustrated with their
Frustrating sex drives

For the sake of
Sticking to the label
Of propriety in this
Primitive, puritanical
Society


(pertaining to some sections of our Asian society that abound with hypocrisy and double standards)
