Marooned Mumbai Poem by Sheshu Babu

Marooned Mumbai



Again!
Another year of troubles with rain!
Same woes recurring again and again!

Roads and metro lines waterlogged
The poor hut- dwellers lives shattered!
Puddles on dysfunctional roads
Leaving traffic to tackle falling sign- boards
And branches of old trees.....

Nothing has changed
Though rulers have 'exchanged'
Power over the decades
Like replacing band-aides...!


The downtrodden die every year
No permanent solution or any one to hear
Their ever present sufferings.....
Only few politicians sympathetic verbal offerings!


They face the same situation
Only change of present system may offer them solution! !

The authorities have not provided relief to the affected families still... Marooned parts of the city are yet to become normal
