Rajkumar Mukherjee - HEATHEN

HEATHEN

the footprints of Goddess Lakshmi
are hanging before you
like the shadows ahead of light
like the ideas ahead of words

since childhood I have earned kudos
for being a 'good boy' too

yet this age this time
appears to me to be without
the blessings of the Goddess
