Kneel Down.
Sometimes, we women,
Have to kneel down,
Before patriarchal dictates.
Sometimes,
Before, cruel, capricious fate.
And sometimes ,
Before the fact that,
We are not empowered enough,
To retaliate.
At childhood,
It was a mere punishment.
But at this adulthood,
It is a tool of deprivement.
The point is-
We can kneel down,
If we learn the right things,
But should we kneel down,
If we are not treated as human beings?
True, Indrani. Women are expected to be docile and submissive, at all times, under the patriarchal regime. Love how your poem challenges that diktat.💚very relevant questions.
True that! Women are always expected to kneel-down before this Patriarchy. Powerful poem 💚💚

Should we kneel down? Very powerful and thought provoking 💚
So true…our power in our hands!
Should we?? Thought provoking… Good one
