If it's beauty that we're after
It's in the love and laughter
Of playing children
Flowers, pets
In hugs and smiles
The sun that sets
All free and widespread

than to interrogate
my own psyche;
perform an introspective
autopsy, dissect
every hidden niche
of my soul.

Shines out on shorter days,

As cattle's gathered in their stall.
The harvester brings in his bounty,
Of wheat that he . . . more

If not in the midst
of God's most peaceful people
can violence be
kept away, where then is it
that safety will find itself?
Will madmen with guns

They sit in a row
selling dreams.
Old shirts, once-white kurtas,
and nine yard sarees.
Woven baskets in front,
deft hands stringing garlands
of mogra, crysanthemums

Warming in my hot hand.
