I've a neater, sweeter maiden in a cleaner, greener land

Has anyone ever written a response to Kipling's "Mandalay"—either parodic or straight—from the perspective of Supayalat, the "Burma girl"? It seems inconceivable to me that someone should not have; the poem has been around since 1892 and it's famous. But I don't know whose collected poems I should be looking in. Friendlist?
