Violation Vi Poem by ARUN D'CRUZE

Violation Vi



THE CONSPIRACY

The gynaeics, beware of them
normal delivery will cost less
but if he can lay the patients
on the operating tables
scissors forceps and knife
bank-cards swipe
tenson's duration wipe
attend and wait
any time of day or night
of normal delivery eliminate.
Cost will shoot five times,
seat rent act as a bonus
medicine, service extraneous.
Benefits from all sides.

If something wrong happened
the villager donot understand,
afraid to complain, take for granted
as their fate, legal action
regal cost, very complex,
justice is corruption ridden
harassing pricks hidden
denied, often bought or hedged
by the judge and lawyer, pledged
with money to the corrupt
you dont even try to interrupt
justice is not only blind
but deaf and dumb of a kind.
justice the poors just rescind.

Just 'the expected' happened,
Doctor made her to be ordained,
for the knife forceps action
can afford an operation
of caesarian section,
inflicting some vague reason
favourable to such decision.
The villagers failed to apprehend,
were eager to spend,
for the safety of the mother
and also the God-send.


Operation was successful.
A baby boy, healthy, resourceful
brought joy to all,
mother's happiness recoil.
after four days rest
at the nursing home end
she got discharged, paid
a bill of fifteen grand.
