BABASAHEB by Chanchal Kumar

Surely we aren’t meant to just read ourselves
In reports of cruel atrocities, barbaric humiliations,
Surely our lives are greater than their newspaper articles
Within our rich lives which their narrow lens can’t fathom
Let’s end the inter-generational burden of trauma
Passed from family to family
We will make a new start in the slogan of our Babasaheb
