[IMC Bombay] sexuality

[Queer NLS]

have just joined the group and don't know if the
progressive alternative people here talk about
alternate sexuality. am therefore sending a poem on
the silence around the issue of sexuality (hope
there's no censorship here) and would like to know of
the responses of the people. 


SILENCE
------------
Ever wanted to scream and shout?
when u thought
U had to speak out?

'No, U shall speak not.
U can see
But not be seen.
Hear U may
but not be heard.
U can exist
But U cannot be!
Ur speech disturbs,
Ur voice threatens.
That rainbow flag
do keep it back,
Let things be
Plain white and black'

No, speak I must
for I have always spoken.
Voices, not victims,
Bring revolutions!

I was the Black
who challenged your paleness.
That woman I was
Who questioned your maleness.
The dalit I've been
Who refused your wisdom.
I was the poor
Who faught 'gainst your kingdom.

Now I am
The GAY incarnate!
I shall love on
Despite your hate!!
