The Heroine Poem by Raghurama Raju

People gather before the theatre
To see the naked heroine
'She bares her body before interval'
' No, after interval.'visitors argue among themselves.
The moment titles are displayed
They want to see her naked
Though they can't follow her
English!
Interval comes and goes!
But the heroine never bares her body!
The frustrated audience Kicks chairs and quit the theatre!
' Don't they see their wives naked, every night, without a penny? '
The theatre manager cracks a joke
Baring his teeth!
Three hours roll by
Another set of visitors gather
Before the theatre
Eager to see the heroine naked!
