India;
It’s true.
I draw you with my toeless feet.
My fingers fell out as I passed your skin.
Drops of blood became your body.
Parliament ; Taj Mahal; Charminar; Rashtrapati Bhavan
Everything in your pride is my bloodstain.
I cannot explain it without fingers.
But a poem can do.
Dispassionately I closed my eyes.
The divided heart floated in the river.
Slowly I opened my eyes;
sun in the distance
-With red glitter-
The red that fell on me fell on you too.
I’m buckling to blossoms now.
