Sailing Through Ichamati
We are a very old wall,
Useless at times. Sometimes forgotten.
People don’t want us anymore
In need of no repair,
History books record tears on our bricks
Long languishing hours
Smoked around us.
Policies and principles ruled our lives
When the country was young.
Ichamati is the corridor
Into things we can design.
We are twins
Our veins have one blood
Even when we are separate souls on map.
Note: Ichamati is a river that separates India from Bangladesh.
