Hathiyaar
Agar is ka avishkaar hua hai
to is ko kaam main laaya jaaey ga
kabhi na kabhi
fir ek dum
hathoDa dakkan k ander se bahar nikalta hai
aur kankapi laga deta hai
sub thahnday paDay hathiyaaroN k kutumb ko
sirf ek hi sachaaee utaijat rehti hai is k sar main
hukm hai hukm hai kehti hui
aur ek keel hairaani main
cHalaang lagati hai andheray main
jo lemha pehlay kuch bhi nahin thee
intzaar kar rehi thee
kanoon ka

Tool
If it's invented it will be used
maybe not for some time
then all at once
the hammer rises from under the lid
and shakes off its cold family
its one truth is stirring in its head
order order saying
and a surprised nail leaps
into darkness
that a moment before had been nothing
waiting
for the law
-M.S. Merwin
