Hey, dear Indian.

Hey, dear Indian.

A Poem by Sandra Nair

Hey, dear Indian.

 

Freedom to think

Freedom to wink

Was taken away from me

 

Do not drink tea

It's from Bengal.

 

Do not eat ladoo

It's from Andhra.

 

Do not enjoy the pictures

It's that of Kerala backwaters.

 

Hate the Devi temple

It's Kashmir's beauty.

 

Do not eat the apples

For it is poisoned by

The Himachal.

 

Spit at the mosque

It's the Muslim spot.

 

Hug him with a knife

He is a Christian.

 

Do not visit Tamil Nadu

It is famous for

The Palani temple

Hindu's by all means.

 

States and castes

Color and parties of politics

Food and views

Have divided the Indians

Have created conflicts

Have destroyed peace

Have curbed rights

But,

 

India is not cut

For when you divide her

You are no more

In the world

Dear Indian.

Hmmm... Thank you, Mary. It's something that many do not understand, even now.
