Gay Menace Poem by Mehta Hasmukh Amathaal

Gay menace

Legal battle for gay rights is over
Judiciary has granted legal cover
It may be long drawn battle with some result
They have been spared from agony and social insult

“Constitution upholds the rights enshrined in constitution”
Everybody must hold the respect for noble institution
Gays can live under the roof with mutual consent
Any individual or society has no right to resent

May be judiciary has accepted broad angle
They were hated all over and almost pushed to the jungles
It was fine with the system if they observed niceties
They can stay as couples with consent in societies

I was visibly moved by sweet words from the friend on line
He seemed to be gentleman and always acted very fine
He may come on line politely and ask for my health
He was only interested in my well being and not wealth

I could not understand his move and act
How person to person can differently react?
How all of sudden he showed interest on my face?
All praise for me and sudden invitation for the body race

I brushed him aside and cautioned him to be watchful
He insisted upon so much and promised to be faithful
I was little stunned and could not hide amusement
I became suspicious for other’s friends movement
T
I refuse to be drawn in their words game
They consider others to be for them and same
It was not unusual for them and had no shame
How could I have pre-opinion and charges frame?

One friend openly asked why I had strong reservation
What was wrong when he had right for observation?
I had no answer for it but could not share his opinion
They may find the answer within their circle or union

You won’t know who can put you in embarrassment?
Uneasy questions and or with suspicious movement
It may be their world to live with and move freely
It was not finding any way with me subsequently

Attraction for opposite sex can easily be understood
It can be any thing such as lust, desire and will act as food
What can be indication from same sex as natural one?
I simply laughed it out as bad dream and cared for none

Still I find requests in box to be friendly with them
I can’t hold their rights as individual one and frame
It should not be practiced in open as merely right
It may invite unnecessary scuffles and fight
