What Was Untouchable?

What Was Untouchable?

A Poem by Satish Verma
"

What Was Untouchable?

"
Being set on fire
my fantasy, my vision.
Something that should not have happened.

Latched to heritage―
the touch of faith brings
sharp harpoons.

Not easy to forget
an elegy I made for unknown.
Will you come to throw the dust?

Cannot punish you
for my sins. A humming bird
crashed this noon on my deck.
A square face peeps from behind the tears.

September had been always
harsh. This month I had decided
to falter.

Your writing definitely comes from your soul vs your mind. I also enjoy the flavor of your cultural heritage. Great Job!
