The woman selling bangles
draped in a cheap cotton sari
looked misplaced in their selfie,
clicked just outside the opulent restaurant,
was thence removed from the picture
using the latest editing technology
from an expensive phone.
This generation has set down their markers right:
from eradicating poverty and hunger
they prefer erasing people and
unwanted tan.
That is some progress!
if only of the lowest kind!
