NEW YEAR DAWN

Post midnight after
celebrating festivities on New year eve
heralding the dawn of New Year
with other participants huddled together
in the city’s well-known restaurant.
The Australian  lady was
returning to her room
at Oberoi Trident
along the sidewalks of Marine Drive
which lay under the
yellowish- greenlight of sodium vapour lamps.
She was silently singing a love song
which she happened  to
listen at the New Year party.
The sea was on a hilarious mood
with waves after waves
flurrying and returning
she felt it like
the sea was making merry
under the starry, moonlit sky
dancing and singing
with the merry-making infinite sea.
The rejoicing and delighted
lady  was caught from behind
by an unknown figure
with all his force 
and dragged her to 
a police chowky
who was clad in a khaki dress
and when she was about to cry aloud
the man roared with
an order to shut up.
The weeping lady pleaded with the man
not to torment her
and free her from his grip.
But no -
the man was not in a
mood to listen to her pleas.
He was in a hurry to undress her
and defile her
crush her like an
elephant crushing a rose flower.
After celebrating his New Year
he let her free
and commanded her to
go to any hell

she wanted to go….
