Assisi Triptych Francis St. Frankie plucked a strawberry off the curb in a snow patch on 8 Mile Road and planted her in the shag carpet at New York Dominic’s big ranch crib on Windmill Point, another white lie as the big wet snowflakes of the false Spring killed the crocuses.

THE WITNESS I am the Peepul tree For decades I have provided shelter to people in rain or shine I am the witness of dynamics of the society Seen people from being a child to getting crippled by age I am the witness from growth to death Witness to beautiful morphing to decay I amContinue reading “VOICES FROM THE FIRE: Anushna Biswas”
