Trans is my name

I'll see you soon.

You and I met yesterday.

You and I met the day before yesterday.

You and I met last week.

You and I met last month.

 

I saw you before.

I saw you ten years ago.

I still see you.

 

So who are you?

Describe yourself.

Where do you call home?

How do you live?

 

She answered.

Trans is my name.

I'm not sheltered.

I have no parents.

I have no family.

I am content to be who I am.

 

I cherish myself.

I cherish people.

I cherish you.

I cherish everyone.

 

I am a paid sex worker.

I beg in the streets.

That is my way of life.

 

Society ostracized me for my gender identity.

But still, I stand tall with self-respect and dignity.

 

My personal experience with transgender women in India.

Tons of burden

Every day in the early morning Even before early birds wake up My master shouted at me and beat me for my last-minute hiccup. She wakes me at 3 a.m. and forces me to milk the dozens of cows and buffalo. Force me to clean the acres of compound I am their cleaner. I am their scavenger. I am their cattle's rarer I am their mechanic. I am their driver. I am their carpenter. I am their blacksmith. I am their storyteller. I am their repairer. I am their sexual object. I have to dig ditches. I have to cut and haul wood. I have to slaughter livestock. Last night, I went to my cabin at 12:30 a.m. As usual, these are my blood-sucking working hours. Lorries of unbearable pain and suffering But I'm still going on with my decomposed body. Tons of tears and sweating Full of rotten flesh and blood.
