REPUBLIC DAY

Wrapped in fog
one more Republic Day--
Gandhi's statue

UGANDA

TWO HAIKU


1.

Piercing her daughter's ears
to save from sacrifice
for prosperity



2.

Feeding spirits with
limbs of uncircumsised boys
a Ugandan witch

EMPTY SHELLS

Walking along the beach
they collect empty shells
that fascinate senses
in the salty air

feel the life now no more
but argue about the sex
of a conch ignoring
the fishermen's song
