Station

Beware: we dream the world askew, my friends;

simple signs are seldom true, my friends.

The old priest called the carpenter again:

‘Why has the sky withheld its dew, my friend?’

I asked the missionary at my door,

‘Why not convert yourself into my friend?’

When dust and ash press down on Delhi skies,

some nights I find my way home through my friends.

Beneath the smoke that cloaks Azadpur Station:

so much fruit for us to chew, my friends.

If I could lay my heart on market scales,

they’d show how much of me is you, my friend.

Once, you cried: ‘Michael, where is the sun?’

Above this smoke, the sky is blue, my friend.
