Flood Poem by Ram Krishna Singh

Flood



Women and children
crossing the flooded huts
with aluminum
cooking pots, plastic cans
and remains of provisions
seek shelter on trees
none know when these too will
collapse and drift down the stream
like the living space
with men in underwear

Very objective portrayal of the situation created by heavy floods in Assam, Bihar and many other parts of the country. Poor people are the worst sufferers. Thanks for sharing this eye-opener.
