Queens Of Desire 04 Poem by Subhas Chandra Chakra

Queens Of Desire 04

Rating: 5.0


At the School,

I serve so many-

So many masters a day.



The naughty and sensual

agent of the employer

with his vast hollow jaws

shallow, vulture eyes

at the girls that enroll

who join here to swell,

and pocket ever ready

to swallow all

that I would manage

to have my purse bulge

for my child's future.



I have to please this man

To keep my back free

from slaps and kicks of the

outraged public within campus

that shower often.

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
While I served in a CBSE school some years ago, I had come across a man of 30 who was serving as an instructor-cum-clerk-cum-entertainer-cum-agent-cum-warden-cum-security guard of the school. He was as helpless as the queen of Pandavas in the epic Mahabharata. He had to please each of his superiors in many ways. The exception was that unlike the queen Draupadi, he was never respected, and was several times beaten by some of the students as well as the public periodically.
That man still continues there with the same job without any exception. I wish Darwin to work in his favour someday...no evolution at all.
