Familial Promises: ‘Honour’ Killers’ Code by Fauzia Rafiq

/ Uddari

If ever you
set foot
outside this house
Smack you, I will

If ever you
cook any thing
I don’t like
Bash you, I will

If ever you
give birth to
a female child
Rap you, I will

If ever you
marry a man
of your choice
Smash you, I will

If ever you
ask for your
property rights
Whack you, I will
