Diasporic Kashmir


Kashmir comes in ripples
As I imagine Dal in Delhi
Like a Phiran
Kashmir engulfs me
In this heat and dust

A distant Azaan
I hear
From Hazratbal
Like hope
I sit unaccompanied
Somewhere in a local mosque
I am a Char Chinari in Delhi

Here
Too afraid I am of these
Scorching roads
For
Kashmir walks barefoot in me
