Indian episodes

In Delhi:

How can I walk upon these hotel floors of marble?
the sacred fortification of ancient mobility
while the sea of humanity suffers beneath smoke filled skies
when simple earthen tiles will do
better for the marble to remain
touched by the sculptors hands and chisel

When an axe falls upon a jagular vein
a pose of flowers springs forth,
and no blood spills

like you my beloved, the beauty is within
though ordinary You appear,
on some miraculous night,
you sing extraordinarily to my heart and my ears
