It's not easy to wash feet
in Messulumi.
Water fetched
fire lit
kettle boiled
warm water poured
soap rubbed
rough towel dried.
Such care
is needed.
Then poem is about having my feet washed in Messulumi village. Messulumi is the village in Nagaland (N E India) that my wife comes from. The painting is also my work is of Jesus washing Peter's feet at the last supper on Maundy Thursday.
