When the teacher said:
I'll get you married off
if you don't recite the lesson
I was afraid.
When my brother said:
My 'husband' is my boss
who never grants me leave
even when I need it most
I grew suspicious.
When the neighbours said:
But, he's a man, a 'maharaja'
so what could he be missing?
I understood.
That marriage is a huge punishment,
that a husband gobbles up your freedom,
and that half the population
that we nourished at the breast
divides
and rules.
