Jammu


Jammu

Jammu,
Wooden shops,
Cobbled ways

Jammu,
Green ancestral alibis canopy concrete roads
Nodding to the whistles of winds

Jammu,
Embroided with green
Tanks and men
Men in green, agile, expressionless like mannequin
Transformed into robots
Vomiting bullets at someone who used to be a brother

Jammu,
Pink-faced, kissed by cold
With deep emerald eyes
Reflecting bottoms of their old waters

Jammu
Serpentine roads
Hospitable cabbies, who are
Google of the place
And no need to feed a word too
Because they read you
Like
