Truant Daughter In Law Poem by Dr. Yogesh Sharma

Always play truant and abhors all in laws,
A knotty bride, slamming doors,
A perverse father’s tricky daughter,
Floats in muddy and shallow water.

Guided and guarded by,
Inhuman Taliban laws,
Branding man’s race,
As savage and subhuman.

Men in khaki and gown black,
Are suitors dear
But never gave respect to,
Her elder in laws.

Rude and twisted to caring in laws,
Direct from honeymoon cracked
Whips on these helpless fellows.
At school her report card noted as spoiled child.

Decked and jacked in false glitters,
Children she mothered,
Narrate tales awful and deadly,
Never taught children with milky hymns.

Children never impressed by her dear mother,
But never learnt to slam the door.
Her funeral was performed sacredly,
Mentioned her virtues in tone false.

But all and sundry present there,
Dwelled her vices in hushed detail,
She was a bandit queen,
In garb of bridal make up.
