Second-Rate Colossus [Free Verse]
Bibi ka Maqbara; Aurangabad
What a thing it is to be trapped under a shadow. To be grand, but not the grandest. To be old, but not the oldest. To argue your distinction, but be too similar to avoid comparison to the marvel. Better to be a shoddy original than a second-rate colossus.

Feel the Breeze [Free Verse]
Feel the breeze upon your face.
Let it be all you know.
Don't ponder atmospheric lows.
Just feel the breeze upon your face,
and know:
There is a breeze.
(Though it may not be
what you think it is.)
You have a face.
(Though it may not be
what you think it is.)
