Closed Citizenship | la.lit
http://www.lalitmag.com/2015/07/closed-citizenship
Monday, July 13, 2015. The sudden consensus of the ruling parties to formulate a national constitution post-earthquake indicates nothing more than a very manipulative kind of political will. While the leap from a seven-year impasse to draft constitution seems impressive, what’s disturbing is how the draft misses out on issues relating to gender equality and Nepali citizenship. As the pressure to force amendments to the misogynistic definition of a ‘Nepali citizen’ escalates, the prospects for single pare...

I have created -. A land for you that is yours. To dig deep for roots. That give life to the blood. Running through the many layers of you. I have created -. A town for you where you can walk. Hand in hand, coupled. In your fits of desire. I have created -. A womb where your tiny apparitions. Into your salty embrace and.
