I may study archaeology...

I may take up gynaecology...

Become economist...

An artist or a scientist...

If I so feel!

No big deal!

Saree or shorts…

I call the shots!

Don't like it...

I can't help it!

Don't look then, don't dare...

I anyway have no care!

Tired of being kept in sight...

Don't give me any more fright!

Roaming in day or at night...

I have that right!

Staying at home...

Be it India or in Rome...

Or having a career...

Better and better...

It's my choice!

In which I rejoice!

Religion or none...

No interference from anyone!

My god is my concern...

Remember that every one!

I eat, I drink, I smoke...

But I don't provoke...

Keep distance, if you want...

No judgements, is what I want!

Being single...

Or ready to mingle...

My decision to make!

Be ready to take!

Baby or not...

Do keep out!

Might find kids terrific...

Might find kids terrifying...

No apologies of any kind!

I deny your claim...

Which is lame!

This is no game...

I refuse to take blame!

Telling me, oh man of the house...

What to do, every time.

Do better!

Ask me, the woman of the house...

What to do, some time!

Good for you, if you can comprehend...

Not that it matters, if you cannot understand...

I am cool!

I don't need any flattering assurance...

I know that I am...

A lady of substance!
