Flower in the box

Sourness of an unknown tropical fruit took you through the colours of the the women's market.
You walked in trance passing Phaneks and faces wrinkled like intricate folklores.
In front of the Kangla Fort, you saw bare bodies of mothers screaming at the cold iron gate of a rapist state..
In Manipuri farms, rubik's cube of political strategy lay shattered with blood clotted all around it..
Snakes slithered through your dreams as you clutched the pillow for help..
You watched thousands of Jasmin flowers blooming in distant lands, while the flower of Manipur waited inside the old steel box of inexcusable insensitivity..
Irom Sharmila Chanu..
Unstaged .. unnoticed .. she is waiting..

If you were to send the poem to her at Irom Sharmila Chanu, Security Ward, Jawaharlal Nehru I M S, Porompat, Imphal East, Manipur 795001 first she would definitely get it, I used speedpost 25 rupees from pune. Its the only thing she has really said that gives her hope that others have not forgotten her and like you she has a poet's soul. oh and say Desi told you to send it after he had read it, May you be happy

issues. When I look at your blog site in Opera, it looks fine but
when opening in Internet Explorer, it has some overlapping.
I just wanted to give you a quick heads up! Other
then that, excellent blog!
