Impersonation

You should have asked me. Why was it not important- to take a life, for saving one other life ? I say, what did you give me after the coronation ? Some sinuous questions ? Or splayed my heart open ? The crowd was always absurd. You were latched onto the- bronzed face of a naïve hero, who wants the ants to drag an elephant. The bone ossification proves that you were still a juvenile. St. Anthony’s Fire ? You want to embrace the death now ? Satish Verma
