Draupadi – Lakshmi Kannan Once more stripped to the raw nerves the bones vibrating cold, Draupadi is bared in books papers, case-studies, written about, explained, clinically justified peeled of mythical euphemism that covered her physiognomy, anatomy, her psyche, discussed till she is wrung out dry- a subject. Eased of the weight of an anachronistic civilization which once bent her double, She has now straightened up to stand easy, looks clear as sheer glass through which you see everything. The global features on her face launched a thousand UN meetings and a conference at Copenhagen. The garment she is now offered to wrap herself for warmth are resolutions on thin paper. The pain was more tangible years ago When She was a mere palpitating organism Beaten and kicked about. The swollen blue and purple bruises on her body won her quick, straight sympathy Not beaten anymore Draupadi stands bare of bruises her heart arrested at a still point in history. She has done it. Has offended the supreme male into a sullen silence by her terible nakedness.
