Faith Favoured (Kenya) and SOMDATA MITRA (India)
To the moments of insecurity and helplessness they scream,
Those women are encaged in a vehement oppression to redeem.
Under the torentations and deep helplessness,
They are the caged birds who crave for help.
Their smiles are suppressed under the autocratic rule,
Their voices are unheard as they are too poor.
They flutter their wings to fly high in the sky,
Through their dreams which enable them to strengthen and get determined.
With each misery and obstacles they confront their adversities,
Those whores are compelled to live inside the dingy lanes in a perversity.
Each day they dream of a new life in sustenance,
To get literate and achieve great heights in the society in an utterance.
They are destined to forbear the compulsions,
That living life like a carcass is what they were born for?
They expect a cool zephyr to see the whole world ,
Those rivers which flow in its own pace tumbling over the rocks.
How beautiful it feels to enjoy the azure sky !
Where the freedom to climb the rocks;
Instills more charm to live life.
These caged birds thronged in the brothels,
Needs immediate freedom to enjoy their life in a jostle.
