Poems
Jul 2019
Oh War ! “….war killed him(my father)” Gurmehar Kaur
Lewd fingers crawl valiantly
on the un-surrendered valley
Silent rage surfaces into a scream
aerated water bubbles from deep within
Can this scream return breathing
to the gothic language of humanity
and tell them to carry a portrait of daughters
on their scandalous fingers
“To smash this night,
To break this shadow” !
Megalomaniac dark hands will be burnt
By the thousands lights of sun
And a daughter not lose her father again
To the fiery of another war !
(Inspired by “As I Grew Older - Langston Hughes”)
