Abstract- Eunice de Souza’s feminist poems express a variety of themes as she reads out the hearts of the women suffering under the patriarchal society and are kept silent by it. Women, since the childhood to the old age, are not allowed to speak out their voice and choice at home and in the society. They are commanded to follow silently the coded norms built for them by the society. They are given no freedom of life and are treated as non-human beings. Women are sexually objectified by men and are treated as servants. They are kept silent bearing everything in their heart. Eunice de Souza presents the suppressed silence of the varieties of women with a great ambition of changing their suppressed life to freedom. She exposing the reasons behind the silence of women attempts to restructure a gender-free egalitarian beautiful society.

Silence, gender, patriarchy, domination, power-play, commodity, objectified.
