The Earth Beneath

Spiral beneath my feet
Spiral beneath my feet

Cracks on the skin
Resisting a throat parched

Dense eyelashes
Streaming rivers of life

The internal inferno
And tremors of rage.

Does such great power
Lie beneath my feet?

‘Tis such privilege
Upon which I stand.

‘Tis such divinity
Due to which I live.

Spiral beneath my feet
Spiral beneath my feet – staircase in an old bungalow in Delhi
