Dirge For Saarc

SAARC, SAARC, why do you shirk
Bearing the dream-cargo of the sub-continent Indo-Pak?
Big Bro Indie, and Small bro Pak
Stomach dreams of SAARC.

SAARC, SAARC you are a vanity trophy,
Never more than an apostrophe.
Billion SAARCians apostrophize,
O SAARC, O SAARC
You are under the placoid scales of a shark.
