our city's
infrastructure
a broken down
power loom
when the CRZ
opens up
it will be
Mumbais
final doom
where there are slums
near the coastal areas
towers will loom
more reclamation
of the sea
new shanties
new slums
will mushroom
only the super rich
the very poor
to do their dirty work
will exist
the middle class
will be
shown the broom
corruption
born in a mothers womb
comes out clawing
to grab illegally
the coffers of hope
in the corridors
of power politics
it blooms
what emotional appeal
mr subroto ghosh
an inquiry after the games
our nation's integrity honesty
like dirty
water from a bathroom
everything will be forgotten
the culprits forgiven
a new game will resume
the master of the game
to new heights
will zoom
making
more wealth
more tears on
our children s tomb
in a system of
corruption
honesty
begging
for elbow room
after the games
tell me
what will
an inquiry exhume
16000 crores
at stake
is what
the master mind
thinks with
others
in his drawing room
profiteering
racketing
what a boom

dedicated
to sachin tichkule
the common man
poison
he will consume
my poem my picture
my gloom
