What is the use of this whining now. When murder and mayhem was about to descend upon helpless, you were busy justifying its moral ambiguities. Now you weep.

no sadna...it isnt deep... and no, i insiste that there is no hint of karzai anywhere in my poem...:)
the poem is just about the ordinary ppl whose lives were ripped apart for no fault of their own...

``An afghan hound it was Sleek, well fed and groomed`` ``hills Where nightly skies rained death``

If you mean poor Mr Karzai, who is the tall and gaunt woman ? Do you mean..?

Zeejah-
Well Done! Your poem carries the reader to the heart of the ``tall and gaunt`` woman...very poignant.

Isn`t there a hindi song with the same sentiment. Goes something like:

`Kuchh woh kutte haiN jo karoN maiN.
MemmoN ki bahoN maiN sir rakh ke soiN,
Kuchh hum pillay haiN jo sardi maiN
saDkoN pe...... royaN.....

....Chhota sa pappu maiN jauN kahaN mere
Batueh maiN paisa no dehla....

Zeejah!

..welcome back...it has been a while...nice poem...in our country some dogs and some servants and some relatives can be lucky indeed...while the majority go through the motions of spending their alloted time with a zombie like hopeless look in eyes...

lve,
