Indian Brides

The quintessential Indian bride
Takes everything in her stride
Physical and mental abuse, part of the game
Always the one to worry about mannerisms and shame

In familial ties, firmly glued
Wants and desires, well subdued
Breeds a brood, cooks a meal
Never to let go of the sacred veil
