Poetry • Discrimination as a peacock

Violet-purple hues scattered all around
Fluttering the beam of hope
Colour distinguished by religion
Religion of disparity and caste
Long-navel neck splinter the thoughts
Thoughts of humanity
Bountiful feathers of linguistic faith narrate the tale of discrimination
Two ugly toes cremated beneath the fossils of duality
Partiality hops like a crow
