Holding
the window-bars
                                      Watches
the path of the night.
                                      The
sky is shedding tears
                                      Lightning
winks at her.
                                      Pink-coloured
dresses
                                      adorns
her body embedded with lust.
                                      Rain-infested
wind
                                      makes
her dark hair dance.
                                      Footsteps
are being heard
                                      Hunters
are coming
                                      Not
Abhisar.
                                      Her
appetite for love
                                      Shall
not be satisfied she knows
                                      Yet
                                      the
door shall be  opened
                                      her
body shall be preyed upon
                                      In
favour  of a single meal.
                                       By following them trustfully
                                      She
once arrived here
                                      Longing
for a job
                                      Which
she’s been offered now
                                      Here
in this foreign land
                                      a
high-status job
                                      rendering
her service to the people
                                      to
make them gratified
                                      winning
the title of a prostitute.
                                      Wiping
her own face
                                      With
her tender hand
                                      She
goes to the door
                                      to
receive the guest
                                      of
one night.
