Life Here At Present On This Earth Poem by Gajanan Mishra

In so-called India
Gajanan Mishra

Come not again
If you are so called India
Come not again
With your
Tri-colour.
I know not anything
About India,
I know not India.
If you are so called India
Remember,I care not you.
I know nowhere
There is a place for
Any individual identity.
I know the earth only
And not any geographical
Trademark here
Or anywhere.
No, nothing is written
With my blood.
I am just a creature
In between
This earth and
That so-called sky.
Forget my colour
Forget my caste
Forget my religion
Forget who am I
And leave me alone
Here at this time.
And go, go away from me
I am no way
Related to you
Mind it
The only truth.
