All you modern girls
Raise your voices
In indignant haste
At my unjustified silence
Against Ram's silly rambles..
Sita! You silly girl..
I hear you squeal..
Fight for your rights woman!
My dear fellow women..
Years from now
When you are married
For the first few years
You will question and question and question your spouse
And receive no answers or worse
Receive answers that are tangential to a tangent
And post stepping past the threshold of that initial hope for wisdom
From year 5 if not sooner
You would just give up and listen
'Coz as he puts question after question to you..
Your mind will - like a lazy dog in the afternoon
Get up, look sulkily and go back to sleep on screen-saver mode..
Murmuring only to you..
'Whats the point?
He will never understand
Let me go home to mum!
And let this Martian be..'
