Headless Daughter (Written After The Gyaneswari Express Accident Near Jhargram, A Naxal Hothead Activity) Poem by Bijay Kant Dubey

Headless daughter,
O, you awake, awake,
Awake, awake and arise,
O, you headless daughter
Of someone
Lying by the tracks,
The railway tracks
Disrupted by
The hotheads,
The leftists gone desperate!

Headless daughter,
Was it,
Was it that wanted you,
Was it,
Was it that saw you
With your gruesome experience,
My daughter,
Daughter,
I see you,
See you lying by the tracks
In blood!

Headless,
Headless daughter,
How, How to describe the pains of survival
In this age of disturbed times
And turbulence,
But what,
What did you,
O, innocent daughter
That bore you the consequences
And for what ideology,
What is this nasty politics
Calling for innocent bloodshed!
