Q11. Direction: Read the following poem and answer the questions that follow:
Mother, I am the one you sent away when the doctor told you I would be a girl - In the end they had to give me an injection to kill me. Before I died I heard the traffic rushing outside, the monsoon slush, the wind sulking through your beloved Mumbai I could have clutched the neon blue no one wanted No one wanted To touch me except later in the autopsy room when they knew my mouth would not search for anything and my head could be measured and bent cut apart. I looked like a sliced pomegranate. The fruit you never touched. Mother, I am the one you sent away When the doctor told you I would be a girl - your second girl. Afterwards, as soon as you could you put on your grass - green sari - the orange stems of the parijatak blossoms glistened in your hair - Afterwards everyone smiled. But now I ask you to look for me, mother, look for me because I won't come to you in your dreams, Look for me, mother, look because I won't become a flower I won't turn into a butterfly And I am not a part of anyone's song. Look, mother, look for the place where you have sent me. Look for the unspeakable. for the place that can never be described. Look for me, mother, because this is what you have done. Look for me, mother, because this is not 'God's will'. Look for me, mother because I smell of formaldehyde I smell of formaldehyde and still, I wish you would look for me, mother.
