Sushant Supriye’s most recent poem to appear here was TK TITLE (TK MONTH/YEAR).
Kalyug*
By Sushant Supriye
Once
a sharp-edged man
pierced a thorn
The thorn
cried out in pain
After much effort
could the thorn
remove that sharp-edged man
from his body
Only then could the thorn
heave a sigh of relief.
(*The present dark age according to Hindu mythology)
