Why? | Student Asmi Gupta | Little Writers Program
By admin in Creative Writing, Poetry on March 2, 2022
An Original Alphabet Style Poem written by our student Asmi Gupta.
Asmi is 14 years old from Jaipur, Rajasthan. She is inspired by the inequalities, taboos and superstitions that are prevalent in society. She loves to write because she believes she can bring a positive change in the society through her writings. We are proud to have her as a student of Little Writers Program, an Online Creative Writing Program using Applied Storytelling & Theatre tools under the mentorship of Trainer Khusshbo Chokhaani. We congratulate Asmi for this exemplary true self-expression.
Why?
Why can’t I go out at night?
When I am menstruating, why cannot I wear white?
Why can’t I have equal rights?
Why can’t I be as strong as a knight?
Why do I always have to be polite?
Why can’t I get into a fight?
Why do I have to live like a parasite?
Why can’t I be as free as a kite?
Even I can be innovative right?
Why do I have to stay quiet?
Even I can differentiate between what is wrong and right
I am like a spark who can set the petrol alight
For my achievements even I should be given some cite
Give me some respect or wait and watch how I will change the world tonight.
