How would Sita react
If she was taken out of the mythology
And left on the lone street of the capital?
Would she worry and wait for her husband
Or fight for herself with her might?
Because she got not rights
Even though they are clearly stated in the rules she had learned by heart
How would Ram know
That her wife is in danger
And in need of him
But what could Ram do
After all he does not rule
This new world
Unlike Ravan
Who rules the state with a lift of his finger
Would Ravan succeed everytime
Because he has better political connections?
Or will the court of Karma bestow her ire on his case?
Throw the false accusations off
And bring them the judgement they deserve?
How would Draupadi fight
Against the people forcing her to marry
Would she stand and say no?
Or follow the law
Asking to marry five
Just because they won her as their right?
Would she stop right there
Or wait till the trouble starts
How would she live
When she have been objectified
From the start?
Would she go out and March
For the rights only stated
And find a couple of people to back
When she fights for her life?
What would she achieve
Except endless loss of energy and time
Because the ears are dead
of the one supposed to help
Who would she go to
When she meets her fate
Marry the five
Still no one to protect?
When the one supposed to help
Berate her in a room full of men
Where would she go
Because the law stops, her five
Same law which never came out
To protect?Because in New world's mythology
True doesn't win over the false
Evil never sees loss over the good,
Money and Influence win over the accusations.
