#NaPoWriMo2023 : DAY 7
Ground yourself
You can hear
the bustling noise of
early brooming street roads,
rustling newspapers and dried leaves,
steaming tea and bisibelebath,
known neighborhood hawkers,
the symphony of urban start,
the cacophony of school buses,
motivated corporate ubers,
and I love how this city
captures rawness
through ironical euphony.
You can feel
taste of streaming dosa at corner,
“Namma” tag everywhere,
the short conversations while pooling,
the need to getaway to Nandi hills,
long walks in the darkness,
familiar faces behind the id cards,
the pain of traffic jams and rents,
and I love how this city
sense the same worldliness
through re-experiencing lives.
You can see
blossoms against the sky,
green lines of KSRTC buses,
switching sides of your colleagues,
vibrant Kormangala’s nights,
chatty cumulus clouds,
flyovers and electronic city route ways,
long drives to happening airport,
and I love how my city
looks through your eyes.
