Poessay: Rosary 25 - pink flamingos, yellow roses, dark clouds
yeh din bhee achcha din hay
aankh khhuli tou dekha oosko
woh jaan leva muskurahat
labouN per khil ga’aee
gulabi jaRa, pink winter nahin
indian summer ka din
her din say mukhtalif
her sheh, pyar maiN ghar’q
***
in the once lush vale, the clouds
carry hate to the desert
of expectations
cowering children play
with expectant dogs and cats
it is a world of animals and
runny-nosed children, their parents
breathing, but long since dead/departed
in search of made to order gods
that can fight their demons
***
chandni chalakhty hay
m’gar in badliouN main
thandak nahiN, aag hay
ik ameer des maiN bani
aag, teesri duniya kay
baasiouN kay liyaye
(moonlight cascades
through the fiery clouds
the benevolent fury
made in the first world
for the third)
***
over morning brew
she brought with that smile
we read about pink flamingos
and undies
political ploys and plays
and move to sports
while listening
for the traffic report
