An Indian Farmer. Poem by Sandeep Dongre

A farmer was laughing at......?
When he saw a huge bungalow before him,
And a uniform clad child coming out of its giant gate.

He was still laughing at......?
When a car passed swiftly leaving him drenched in the clouds of dust.

He was laughing more intensely at......?
A mall that was being constructed on the land which a year ago was his farm.

He was loudly laughing at......?
He was loudly laughing at......?

Guess what?
At his own shadow.
