Stop the bad word

byAnanya S Guha

Stop the bad word
enough in drains
hovels, spit and guns
blood running in its veins
stop the bad word
shoot it, take brains out
let it foam in anger
but stop it , till all the filth
in roads, railway tracks,
deep slums, take over
let the child with matted hair
mouth it, not that man
sitting glitzy, in high chair
of operations, let money
be soiled, houses burnt
stop the bad word, foul mouthed
demagogue of peace, sloven
of hope
Twist it till it is maimed
stop the bad word.

Ananya S Guha is a writer based in Shillong.
