Jeannie's shadow

      Why on the heels of sis’ early death
      Does Auntie hurl curses over my head?
      In her next-to the-last breath
      Have I not bled?

      Sis’ echoes seeking to condemn
      From beyond the grave
      Many such daggers have I impaled
      Deeply wounded and survived

      Oh, to bring me to the “fold”
      To rebuke for being bold
      Was I ? cold?
      No, tired of being sold…

      Outkast
      Taken into the loving embrace
      Of Krsna
      As I Plummeted from dis-grace

      Out of grace
      With a family
      Bent on defining God
      As their household commodity

      Hare Krsna Hare Krsna
      Krsna Krsna Hare Hare
      Hare Rama Hare Rama
      Rama Rama Hare Hare
