On watching Indian Polity Such was my country twenty-one Summers ago In a starry night I ,with my wife Prema young Walked along the road of midnight Mysore slow As snow veil clad chilling breeze rippled along. No ****** , drunkard, rowdy, as hyenas did draw No clique with camera to strip or **** did throng An auto -driver so friendly took us to a lodge; so Gladly with son Sudev we enjoyed Dassara song .
Now, in every city , I fancy , Sahasralingaβs attacks From Bars with bars such barbarians may pounce As executive dread such law-breakers to punish. Political aspirants languid sit in and pronounce In Parliament to protect the culprits from barracks Deceiving democrats and putting them in anguish. ====================================== Note: Prema: name of wife; Sudev: name of baby(son). Sahasralinga: nickname of Indra /Devendra.(King of Devas who live in luxury. Parliament: the legislative building. Mysore: the city in Karnataka,India former capital of Mysore kings. Dassara:a state festival in Karnataka, ==========================================
