PALACE


I have seen umpteen palaces in my day dreams
and those were palaces of Gods not of humans....
How can I explain you that I do not know in words
but i see around human mansions in bricks and stones
not strong enough even to withstand a season of a life
and in pavilions of life which palace you show me
again and again as a relic from your past record book
Is it not built from the resources taken away
from the branches of a confederation
Is it not built on the ruins of your own shadow trees
in bricks and stones.....
