A brief expression

Not innocent
Yet innocuous
Mag-nificent
Yet oblivious

Day I shall stand on the mountains you erected
Day I shall surge the valleys you created
Day I shall swim the rivers you flowed
'll be the day my fears may no longer be sighted.

Thou shall walk into my arms
Unearthed, untainted, unscathed
Seeds, hence will be sown in farms, not lands
Then shall I say "thou have I conquered, my dream."

Bombay a.k.a. Aamchi Mumbai

Been a while
This slimy bile
Chained me
Drained me
Alone in this hamlet
Filled with a sore regret
Striving to survive
Where people are so naïve
Those who failed to know
Failed to grow, that
Pushing is a must
Nothing else is just
However, as I near the top
I learn, its an important drop, down.
I light a few smiles
That last for miles
A blissful family
Is in which you’re free
Even as the bile extinguishes
Whatever’s left of your goodness.
