Politics Is My First Name

I am politics, Political is my right

In my lies even, I don’t hide my fight

The gushing scenarios now are turning blue like a vein

Because the colors of truth are now eradicated from their face.

I am as political as the men in middle class families

When they speak you can’t certainly intervene

It boils their blood and dares their masculinity

So, they raise their voice and think they all imply.

I am politics, Political is my right

I promise to know my rights

Before I speak my voice

I promise to know it all

Before I start building a wall.

I am as political as women in middle class families

Some only stay quiet to keep it clean

The Only difference is

Women know but men like to plough

And so, we let them

Because we already know
