in the name
of progress
in the name
of widening
the roads
they made
the churches their
walls forgo and soon
came the hawkers
to occupy
the empty spaces
we all know now they
want crosses to go
with cudgels ready
blow after blow
in amchi mumbai
jesus
has become
an eyesore
i speak of jesus
because i studied
in a catholic school
what i am to them
i owe
they made
me a good
human being
a good muslim
a good mumbaikar
all the more
different religions
different paths
a single destination
a single door
a lyrical thought
a poetic score
