Poem | Crows of Banaras
In their eyes
she, is the holy river
and I, am a doubtful sinner.
I drowned myself
deep in Ganges.
now she, is a holier-than-thou
and I, am a confessed sinner.
Ghats of Banaras, in India, is a holy place where Ganga river is washing sins of many from thousands of year.
breakup
oh dear,
only out of complaint
of my cheeks
& their fear
of getting drizzly
& losing a makeup smear
I’m hiding my feelings
& holding
my sorrow & tears!
