Seek her not !

Sita

Is just another icon

Bestowed on the second sex

By the culture, so elite and devout!

Couldn’t it be that:

Her conflicts with herself -

The ‘Ram Ravan War’?

Ram – her designed label?

Ravan – her inner thirsts?

Did not they know -

That she abandoned the remnants of Ram

In the fire she entered

And out she came, alone and liberated.

So was it not a self chosen exile

That she led in the woods so deep

In solitude- Happy, wasn’t she then,

For once in her life?

When Mother Earth

Opened up for her,

She took with her, her mysterious self

In awe, the pious stood, and still stands..
