An Accession Signed In Romance

Oh damn any nonsense accession!
That so called Lion of Kashmir 
Had signed,
Bowed before an Indian woman minister,
Had half-cut hair, an instrumental seductress—
I have heard.

Withdraw your troops!
Why this border between us?
We have our brothers and sisters across,
Don’t you understand???
As you have halved Our land into two?
And gifted some to China!

Oh God we poor people are occupied--now for long;
We flutter as parrots in cage,
And no one ever has ever felt our pain.
 If You Yourself come to our aid?
