International Women’s Day
Ahhh...aren’t we blessed!!!!..A whole day for us and only us.
Oh forget about the rest 364 of them….that’s nobody’s business when we are abused and shamed and burnt and tortured. Who cares… haven’t we given you a day, Women!!
It’s like luring the little girl with a bunch of sweets and then in one dark corner taking her childhood away!! Or for that rosy eyed bride promised with the moon on a platter only to be found hung or burnt or sold because her poor hapless family couldn’t provide the designated dowry!!And what about that young mother…she had the gumption of creating a life, just like her.. so snuff out the creature before she can know who she was!! Every second a woman somewhere is dying..ask not how..ohhhh, that’s of no importance. She is just a woman..one dies, there are a million to murder. And justice?? that word was long obliterated from the dictionary of this world.
A grand day..8th of march….a day when we are lured and enticed and seduced to think that the world is concerned about us and we women believe in that placebo!! No wonder we are taken for a ride down the dark lanes of this world with such ease..Naivity thy name is woman!!
Somewhere in my neighbourhood the strains of Louis(Big daddy) Armstrong’s baritone lingered in the morning sunlight…….It’s a beautiful world……..
I wonder where can that world be !!
