A thought gives birth
born a man
but divided on earth
he is a hindu
i am a muslim
evaluated
as our
respective worth
a mandir
a masjid
on the soul
of humanity
seeking a berth
i cry in shame
tainted
targeted
because
we both share
a single mother
the same pangs
of pain and joy
the same childbirth
if peace was possible
why do we seek
happiness
in our next birth
divided by a wall
by politicians
religious heads
vested interests
a buried treasure
at our
expense
as they unearth

to a poet of sensitivity
