For the feelings attached with the collections of my ethnics.

झुकती हुई सी पलकों में
अदब सा लिपटना आता है,
कंगन सा बिखरना हमे,
साड़ी सा सिमटना आता है ।

My long sleeves
Dictated my obedience.
The long umbrella cut
Decided my length of character.
The intricate designs
On my silk clothes
Just reminded me
How trapped I am
In the designs of
Social tomfoolery.

After we get bored
with all"trending"s
and "latest"s,
we walk back to
"classics" and "vintages"!

All the girls were wearing western clothes at the farewell party and she wore the first ever Saree worn by her mother.

You wear poems like ethnic wears you.

When you want
to prove that you
can be modern
and ethnic at the
same time

The softest part of the white Mundu
was the part
near my Ammamma's waist,
a million times she wiped
her hands at that spot,
Wearing it thin, but the cloth
never really gave away,
standing its ground,
Like her.
It was also the favourite spot
For her grandchildren
wiping their snotty noses
and sticking fingers, while
Ammama hugged them
Or gave them a sweet.
That Mundu had seen
years of love and trust
Weaving generations into its folds.

Wearing your wedding lehnga
again after a decade on karwachauth
Wow! lovely ! What a story...

But hey -
Can't believe - you haven't gained weight !!

If Dresses Could Speak
They Would In Anger Shriek
O Inhuman Human !
We Dresses Were Meant To Be Gracefully Worn
And Sarees To Be Ethnically Draped
Instead Of Being Mercilessly Torn
And Unethically And Brutally Raped.
