Now I SpeakA Poem by Satish VermaBecoming myself, in the light of a flint, I
Becoming myself,
in the light of a flint, I come back to retrieve the story, after the pernicious fall. Do I tell you the truth of the doll's death? The damned shock- after the head was severed from its body. The golden leash lies broken Where your religion has failed? I am carrying the wheels of the dirty war to put on the crumbling walls of peace Te untouchables.They are crowding the square.Do you hear the heart rending slogans? The borrowed mantras were fake.Mud in mud, you want to outlive the dark caves. © 2018 Satish Verma |
