Theme: Terrorism

Salaam Mumbai

Leopold, Taj,
Trident,
Victoria Terminus,
Nariman House,

The moment stands
Silent and pouting
As people meander
Through the hubbub,

Some fix comments
On the new tableau
Of hands, fragments,
And flowing emptiness.

Then memory's inveterate devil
Scratches open a scab
And saunters away,
Leaving behind consternation.
