*DO YOU HEAR HER WORDS?*
Faheem Hasan Shahed
 
I assert myself as a powerful human 
triumphantly existing in my own way 
with nobility and gallantry,
righteousness and dignity,
graciousness and tranquility,
decency and wisdom, 
self-respect and freedom...
Yet you, the boastful South Asian male, with all your 
juvenile egotism, 
heartless naïveté
incendiary superstition,
love to term my individuality as 
*woman-power*!

Aah, why should I care
when I’ve already started flying across 
the plush blue sky of endless spirit?
