Tyre-Deep

Each monsoon exposes the failures we normalize—flooded streets, choking drains, and a city forced to endure the same cycle.

Come rains,

and the city stands still

in treacherous tyre-deep pools

of murky water

rising under the hammering downpour.

Gutters belch and vomit

our failures

and we wade through them,

year after year after year...

Welfare unto all 

Rab rakha 

Forever with me

On Guru Purnima, I cherish the sacred light that guides my path, dispels darkness, and remains forever within.

Beyond all darkness

the light of Thy lamp

forever with me -

and this I cherish, always.

Welfare unto all 

Rab rakha
