Power remains only in family name
They have established reign over national game

In an arid land of arid human minds
Caste, yet again authored a tragedy.
He, disease wrecked, downtrodden,
long-ago skinner of animals, sets out.

I was born on a windy night-
When the clock stroke twelve
Under the starry sky,
In a tarpaulin covered tent.

What is it trodden, suppressed, oppressed
And exploited and tortured,
The poorly downtrodden, have-nots, the exploited,

Come what may we've pledged solidarity:
Though some of us may demand
A separate Dalit Land

Dalit literature,
This is possible in India,
In Indian context only,
Not at all applicable to English literature
...
The entity that is dreaded by all but ever present everywhere, a non-respecter of age,
Poverty does not have regard for race, nor nationality, as it is present in every part of the globe,
Poverty breeds diseases, it has siblings like misery, ignorance, illiteracy, dejection, rejection, degradation, agony,
Poverty means the difference between haves and have-nots, the rich and the poor, the upper and the lower class,

In memory of Rohith Vemula (1989-2016)
Trees are hoisted by their own shadows
Air pours in from the north, cold air, stacks of it
The room is struck into a green fever
Stained bed, book, scratched windowpane.
A twenty-six-year-old man, plump boy face
Sets pen to paper - My birth
Is my fatal accident, I can never recover
From my childhood loneliness.
Dark body once cupped in a mother's arms
Now in a house of dust. Not cipher, not scheme
For others to throttle and parse
(Those hucksters and swindlers,
Purveyors of hot hate, casting him out).
Seeing stardust, throat first, he leapt
Then hung spread-eagled in air:
The trees of January bore witness.
Did he hear the chirp
From a billion light years away,
Perpetual disturbance at the core?
There is a door each soul must go through,
A swinging door -
I have seven months of my fellowship,
One lakh and seventy thousand
Please see to it that my family is paid that.
She comes to him, girl in a cotton sari,
Holding out both her hands.
Once she loosened her blouse for him
In a garden of milk and sweat,
Where all who are born go down into dark,
Where the arnica, star flower no one planted
Thrives, so too the wild rose and heliotrope.
Her scrap of blue puckers and soars into a flag
As he rappels down the rock face
Into our lives,
We who dare to call him by his name -
Giddy spirit become
Fire that consumes things both dry and moist,
Ruined wall, grass, river stone,
Thrusts free the winter trees
From their own crookedness, strikes
Us from the fierce compact of silence,
Igniting red roots, riotous tongues

The Taj Mahal's love tale is eternal
Built by a prince to mark lost bridal joys
White marble sculpted in a vast farewell
Fashioned with all the grandeur wealth employs

Dalit's matter, why are they taking up,
Let them take up and say
Rather than them

Dalit literature. What is in Dalit literature? How the text and the treatise? Who the exponents of it? And what in Dalit, un-Dalit? Which is whose literature? Is it a sociological, anthropological, ethnographic study? How to do justice with? I do not understand it.
Do they really express who have borne the brunt of exploitation? Who are they who have really suffered? Does it really represent them? The Dalit men and women, let them tell, tell you not.

My Autobiography, The Autobiography of A Dalit Girl
Foreword
A Dalit girl's autobiography is before you to see, what it is in her life, what not, how she has been eking out a living, how the story of her life which nobody knows it, how is it life in the country, the rural side. Agricultural India's problems we could not feel it. How were our homes and ways? How did we live in as agriculturists, farmers and rural people? A Dalit girl's autobiography will speak the same. Our villages and been as such, our country homes and never could we rise above. But caste and class-based discriminations destroyed it all.
