Playing Holi ….by Aboli Mane

heterochromia
a duality of view
divides her into
what she should be
what she should not be
people wag their tongues
while she paints her skin
multicoloured; incandescent
her art will be bolder
than what she’s allowed to be
playing holi
can’t you see?
she is the quiet defiance
a statement through her piece
I will be what I want to be
Written for Reena’s Xploration Challenge #270. In celebration of Holi and Women’s Day on 8th March! Thanks for reading 💕
