"Cracks in the Mirror" Poetry & photography

"Cracks in the Mirror" Poetry & photography

डेमोक्रेसी today

Democracy today

Is democracy
Right for the Afghans or Iraqis
Unthinkable thought
Countries torn by tribalism
Certainly need a strongman
A one party state
Until institutions are in place
and people value
the principle of statehood
and take pride in their nation.

हैकु न्यू haiku

Haiku
A lost dog
Sees itself in a rain pool
Overcast sky

Haiku
By the pier
Cats wait for the fishing boats
Sunny morning

Haiku
Under a tree
A white sleepy donkey
Summer heat

Haiku
Hare spoors in snow
Suddenly turns ruby
Silent sky

Haiku
Corrugated flurry
Glitter as transient pearls
Memories.
