A Homeless Sindhi Woman

"In Akbar the Great’s durbar,
Anarkali, Queen of Beauty, reigned.
     Yet
even she was buried alive.


Delhi, India’s pride, and I,
inheritor of the marvels of Indus architecture.
     Yet
even I have been buried alive


homeless in history’s graveyard."


- Popati Hiranandani from Man Sindhin (via Q3D)
