Draupadi

O Kunti how could you do this?
you turned me into an object
the moment you divided me
amongst your five valiant sons.

and they wagered me as though
i was not their wife but an object.

and all my five brave husbands
watched as i was insulted
and that evil Dushasana
dared to touch my garment.

had it not been for Krishna
Draupadi would be no where.

for all those women who are still in the same position as Draupadi.
