Butcher's widow said "My husband is dead so let me meet your need for meat" To the crowd on the street And she fixed a board With whatever she could afford Just above the tiny shop Tied it hard lest it could drop First day a banker stood Like a snake raised his hood The 'blade companies' drink hum  Read More...

You are tired. There are dark bags under your eyes and your skin is freckled with mosquitoes bites.

Blue sky is very clear, No more thunder we hear, What is hidden, is the cloud tears. Wind's fury quiet by the time, No more it's war time, What we left with is the sunshine. Chirp of birds is out by now, No more hidden are the cows, What to see now, is the broken boughs. India is full of fears, No m  Read More...

When life gives me bad days, I remember myself as a little girl; all soft and gentle never apologizing for what she felt or for all the words she never stopped saying, never skipped a meal or a good night’s sleep dreaming about the world as her oyster; she was so beautifully herself and so fie  Read More...

My Jaws clenched blood out from my veins as the Fork spiked my hand. They all just looked at me in reticence as nobody had the courage to save me because at the end they were too afraid.
