Lovedance


And Nisha...
To wear a condom when with her,
Did make it feel incomplete?
A bit odd?
Several times, it was.
But I wanted to sink neck deep into life.
So
To wear a condom
I invented the 'lovedance'.
You think all this is a bit crazy?
I am sharing these memories with you because
Maybe what was between Nisha and me -
That lovedance -

May be useful for someone out there.

Several other sex workers were taken away by the police, some of whom are still missing; several people were booked under the anti-trafficking act. The administration took no interest in protecting the basic citizenship rights of the displaced and victimized sex workers. The camp where the sex workers were housed in the interim did not have food and water, those burnt in the incident did not get access to proper medical care; several people died. Subsequently, after local groups advocated for their return to their dwelling under full administrative protection, the sex workers were allowed to go back to their burnt down homes – but without adequate food and medicine supplies and protection from further harassment. While the local administration is clearly not inclined to make any special...
