my parents lie
side by side
in a mazgaon
shia cemetery
where they
eternally reside
embedded in the soil
of a city of love purity
passion and pride
what i inherited
from them
was adab tehzeeb
respect for my
cultural inheritance
i am what i am
nothing here to hide
shooting
hope hindutva
as a message
of peace and humanity
mother india
a masjid a mandir
a church a gurudwara
which is home
for all beyond
caste creed religiosity
faith the moving guide
yes i am a
proud maharashtrian
