Why Can't She? Poem by Aarzoo Mehek

Why Can't She?

Rating: 5.0


Why should a woman
Always bear the brunt
Of narcissistic conduct

Why should a woman
Not show the transgressors
A spot in eternal damnation

Why should a woman
Always be the person in question
Why can't she retaliate the injustice?

Why should a woman
Not defy the treacheries tossed
At her face holding society principles.

The discriminating attitude of the society in such cases is unjustifiable

Ma'am you are resonating with me. Yesterday i was reminded of an incidence of this ill retaliation. Yes why only a woman to suffer. She too should have her voice being heard. Into my favourite.

For several millennia this has been the situation but things are changing with the change of overall outlook in our society. The process might be slow but it is steady. Thanks, Aarzoo ji.

In man's dominated society someone like you needs to spearhead and head start and let it be you, Aarzoo. Thought provoking poem.5****
