A Qasi Governmental Report

A fun poem about rules & regulations

A Quasi Governmental Report

Unarmed military  offered prayers

One tin water is for ten rupees

.

Underground river cut off from source

Habitually disgusted because of envy

.

Strong words used for sealing border

Public Works Department has broken

.

Since at the day’s end in share market

A woman’s body cut in two with sickle

.

Postal ballot in hand amid tomato field

Lying pristine with great expectations

.

Ambitious pair of shoes for parliament

Let them say whatever  face betray

.

As if  rice field is scared of Tiger’s roar

Daughter of cultivator is in ministry

.

Tired cuckoo-man grieving  due to son’s death

From football field corner in direct shot

.

Solved the problem of freedom movement

On the forehead of dead that was the truth

.

Sonpur Fair, Evening of Gumrahi Tart

Sliding jute curtain

flickers in tent lantern
