india has no place for creativity
we are told to copy the answer from the reference book
to write it exactly as the teacher says
we all draw the same house with a river and the sun in between two mountains
and the birds that look like 3s
we dont live in houses like that nor does a river run by our house
yet we all drew it the same for that's what we were thought
creativity is punished, it is not according to the grading rubric
we are not allowed to be ourselves to think for ourselves
even in creative writing assignments they give us the plot and tell us to write the story
why even bother naming it creative writing if you're just concerned about our sentence structure?
we are not allowed to be independent or to think for ourselves
we have to consider what will our teachers think, parents think, the society at large will think?
nobody considers how we think how we feel
we are made to be robots parroting our parents or someone else who is charismatic enough
all independent thoughts are quashed by people, any line of questioning leads to being called an idiot,stupid
am i an idiot for not blindly following you?
we are not people we are being molded into machines to let the country continue according to the whims of the few at the top

Bangladeshi Hindu genocide remembrance day
— This is for the genocide deniers.
That’s all I’ve got to say. The video speaks for itself.
