It's Good To Be Dead!

The re-emerged outburst of Indians on the heinous rape case of 16 December 2012 with #India'sDaughter has once again rekindled our thoughts on being a woman and living not just in India but in this world. What if the victim, Jyoti would have survived and was witnessing all this or what if her soul is somewhere seeking for peace but is restless by the never settling mess. What is there she has to say: Is she actually a victim.

Was I a Victim or a Bait

With every passing day, I feel more and more contended

With every passing story, I feel more and more determined

It's good that I am not there, to justify, to comment or to give it back

It's great that I am not there, to be blamed, to be accused and to be questioned

So many voices to opinion about, so many views to contradict around

Everyone has a point to make, everyone has a theory to break

Some question over my contemporariness, a small town girl blown away by big city charms

Some stand over my sassiness, an aspirational girl sledging the stereotypes away

Though I don't know where I have to sketch the line,

The line which differentiate me from a Victim to a Bait

The Victim who beneath those 5 egoistically challenged Men was cluttered, cramped and clutched

The Bait who at midnight invited those 5 Morally preached Men, for her character to be judged, juxtaposed and jumbled

The Victim who didn't let it go easily as she questioned and rebelled

The Bait who strolled around in night with a boy and compelled

The Victim whose body parts were crumbled with masculinity and organs were juggled with masochism

The Bait whose body was an invitation for the righteous hormones to penetrate the frustration and experiment the specimen

The Victim whose parents are offered compensation of her life with money and marches

The Bait whose parents were questioned for their upbringing and their liberalness

The Victim who left this world, wallowing all souls with a question for every women and, answers to be told

The Bait who left this world, employing all the law entities, to voice on everything a girl can be called

It's good that I am not there, to see filing reports, filming documentaries and the breaking news theories

It's great that I am not there, to still see amending laws, more rapes and more brutal new stories.
