The Land of Dream

The Land of dream

 Early Tuesday morning when the night
Glides into a new beginning somewhat reluctantly 
And no police sirens have been cutting the night
Till before and after sleep.
I will like to go to India. the vivaciousness of
The humanity intrigues me, the struggle to makes a living
Warms my heart, the poverty is holy 
The cattle in the streets holier than the statue 
Of the man who gave his life for freedom which so easily
Can be lost again when one religion is preferred
From another, they make one set of people arrogant
The other set hateful.
I will be in India tomorrow.

" the poverty is holy " - this gave me pause, and a new optimistic perspective.
