No More of Taboos.

Taboos are time bound.
Yesterday's taboos are today's takeaways.
The right to privacy recomposes 
Taboo tunes,in terms of changing times.
Justice juxtaposes sections of law,
In line with interests of equality norms.
Equality cries are more empowering than
The edifices of tradition and morality.

The doors of justice are being knocked at,
For issues silly and serious alike,
Pushing them beyond their hinges.
Lesbian or licentious,people are gay now,
Transcending barriers of sex or gender.
Adultery has shed its archaic stench.
Pilgrimage has its pocket full of roses,
Pushing the gender-free fragrance, 
Into the flames of deities of celibacy.

'Spare the rod and spoil the child'is also seen
As a taboo maxim,because people chew liberty
As a sweeter goal than lofty learning codes. 
The curriculum gates have said goodbye to canes
Lest the wards and their warring parents,
Should bang the doors of justice to spare the child.
Future grandmas will have more stories to spin and yarn,
As the cries for privacy,crack taboos for many a new dawn.

    { Note:- 'gay' here exclusively means 'cheerful and happy'}
