Dr. Alka Singh
The birds are gone
Green parrots on the cloth line
it shows shining …
The work force
made that shining
in the semi finished apartments.
The birds are gone
the migratory selves .
and so they chat
these green selves .
Muffled the move
Romisha called
this late afternoon ,
the movements are halt
and muffled are the move.
The unlock …
yet the labourers stalked.
Work from home
and work at home .
“I will manage to come!”,
Declares Romisha,
so suited the interests ,
perhaps of the snoop.
