Sanjeev Sethi - One Poem

 Panorama

For the parched

semblance

of shower is enough.

Unruliness

of our union

a song

to saplessness.

Bias is built-in

the human chip.

This is an offshoot

of the temporal run.

It is not in the texture

of alluvial soil

to understand

ruth and rue

of the scorched.
