Poetry at Sangam

AT THE TILE SHOP by Abdur Rehman Khan

beneath the nimbu and mirchi

just left of the Swastika, you’ll find Shiva
with his family! The Mecca adjacent to him
What kind of a Hajj is this?
Between a Shubh and a Laabh you’ll see a Quran.
The dome of Khwaja Nizamuddin will be facing the chest,
torn open, of Hanuman.

Cement
M-Seal
and fevicol

is all you would see.
