Sreekala Sivasankaran

No more insinuation

No more provocation

No more arguments

No more slapping on the face

No more pinching of the hips

No more pulling of my breasts in the street

No more spitting on the vagina

No more forced Carols

No more baptisms of captivity

Put me on medicines

Put me on ECT

Shoot me onto my chest

I am a Muslim

Purdah is my resistance
