by Debanjana Majumdar
Let me search for one more Scythian
Be thy Tabiti, condemn that cyprian.
I will keep your cold heart warm,
Spend a thousand years on a small farm,
Ten thousand years to adorn you
with black opals. Got a heavenly view
of my Joshua tree, I have survived
the flood and will, this new world.
From Bethlehem to Lutece, we will travel,
The Hanging Gardens of Babylon will gravel
the dark twisted path of Unalome,
To fly to the next world, but not alone.
