Karwa Chauth Moon


Wiping and Sweeping 
In stranger's home,
Giving fee for children,
Making Roti Chapati,
In someone else's kitchen
To make her own kitchen run
Listening to cheap abuses
Of the alcoholic husband
Assaulted physically
By gambler husband
Got raped each night
Still,
She keeps Karwa Chauth Fast

Wish....

The moon had been women
Then 
In the dark life of theirs
There had been little light
