Pramod Babu - Modern

Modern
—————

I have no confidence 
that my ancestors were wise
that we can rely on the sensed
that our lot is wonder and gratitude.
O deaf Power, speak my persuasions
For my tongue is frozen by icy derangement.
How strange a luxury - to be liberated 
From even the distant glimmers of 
Truth's mere refractions.


(On listening by the work of Bahauddin Dagar, Feb 2023)
