Poison my land

Advertisements

I come from the land 

Where always 

The past is the present. 

In a certain sense then,

India was independent. 

On my land, 

When you throw

A mango away,

A lush tree will grow. 

Come see the tragedy

Then,

The seeds of men,

Dud in the hatred,

Giving rise only

to poison ivy! 

By Arjun Kramadhati

This is me. As Charles Bukowski would put it - born like this, born into this. I don't like to talk about myself. I am afraid this is all you are getting now. I like to express myself through my poems, and stories and very soon another novel. I love you, my darling reader. So read on.
