My Repentance
Pravat Kumar Mandal
Listen, what would have been better
If I had been anywhere else?
Being a shameless parasite there
I'd have written long long tales,
The tales would tell many stories
About the poor in poor countries.
Listen, what would have been better
If I had said nothing about me?
Negating my own human share
I'd pass awaymy life with glee,
My tales would warble your dirty:
About you and your poverty.
Listen, what would have been better
If I'd get the reward the best?
Being glad with the next treasure
I'd repent deeply for the rest,
You'd cheer me and my origin
But neither my tales nor my sin.
