godhra, gujrat, buddha

godhra, gujrat

yesterday, accidentally
burned my hands
and thought
what were 'they' thinking
in fire's embrace?


godhra, gujrat

kul jo achanak
jal gaya hath m'ra
tou souchnay laga
janay kya guzri hogi oon per
aag ki aaghosh maiN


some buddha

they speak now
of resurrecting
that Bamian Buddha.

And 'they' speak here
wisely, foolishly
incessantly
over whose buddha *
is better
