Cultural Topsy TurvyA Poem by Kuma Raj Subedi
If breathing is living
Yes we are- Breathing in comma Ascending the shadow of grief-mountains If watching is loving Yes we are- Watching the beautiful turn ugly On the red carpet of treatise on sex If smiling is happiness Yes we are- Grinning the hatred giggles In images and emojis of virtual life If self-talk is considered social Yes we are- Clicking like buttons, and sharing Insurmountable garbage information In the unsociable social digital-trap If joining hands is helping Yes we are- Making a gesture of it For the sake of framing a digital image Rupturing trust and confidence of victims If bulldozing signifies a stage of development Yes we are- Bulldozing the cultural heritage To erect skyscrapers and watch towers To watch the doomsday lurking in the shadow © 2022 Kuma Raj Subedi |
