Vimala

“Damn all kitchens. May they burn to cinders, / the kitchens that steal our dreams, drain / our lives, eat our days ... / For our children's sakes, / Let us destroy these lonely kitchens.”
- Vimala,
- "The Kitchen," in Susie Tharu and K. Lalita, eds., Women Writing in India (1991)

Vimala, Indian poet

(1959)
