10.

ideological space is full of voices 

opposed to our movement 

too afraid are they

intense state repression 

made it extremely difficult 

for anyone to come and 

understand our pain

struggling to just exist 

we're stateless citizens on this earth

loaded in favour of the rich, 

the privileged and 

the powerful 

we believe 

this predatory state is incapable 

of delivering justice 

without an overhaul

let us hope 

one day 

fear may lose its grip 

let us hope 

one day 

we may meet a man 

in an inhumane time 

at the throne of Delhi 

who may 

at least 

try to see 

our misfortune

(From my poetry collection, “Always in Transit”)
