Village

April 22nd, 2010 by anuradha

There is a village

which sits on my shoulders like a vulture …

despite this O my village

I uninvited relate with you

as you fly

within and outside of me

like a vulture

 

Excerpt from "Bayan-Bahar" the autobiographical poem of Sukhveer Singh, a Hindi Dalit Poet. Dalit Nirvachit Kavitayen (Selected Dalit Poems) from here.
