Unshackled from broken love.

My Country Tis of Thee But Relatable

I have anxiety 
I can't sit quietly 
Inside my brain

Cause part of it is fried
And part of me has died
I said "I'm fine" I lied
I am in pain

A stench of gunpowder
                 threads that frayed yet never broke
                                                     A dove bows its head

On this Independence Day

in Delhi, flags whisper.


The march continues;

dawn keeps the song,

hands linked

across time and hope.

Honoring Liberty

There is no debate,
what we celebrate.
Formation of the state,
never racial hate.

Former colony,
freed from monarchy.
Honoring liberty,
not inhumanity.

Picking My Own Kind of Slapstick

Every treaty they make 
makes to cheat me
to
dislocate me 
from my
territory

and on the plains
it is so plain to see
that a treaty's not
worth
diddly squat.

Independence Day

Come let's celebrate the fourth of July
With baseball, hot dogs, and Mom's apple pie
We're sure to ignite
Fireworks at night
So head on over, we'll light up the sky

Of India today floats
In the wings of clouds
Sixty nine years have passed since
Caged birds still in your moist eyes
