Oh! Lovely Taj,
This is where you stood once,
Beaming with pride,
Your beauty you cannot hide
To early November light
You woke
Stretched and yawned
Found a gun in your face
Now you are in shambles
Broken pillars
Cries of people dying
Bodies frying
Frozen faith, Shattered panes
Political sympathies, Booby trap
The invisible man, Pot shot,
Fagin's day, Boman, Last dinner
Crumbled under barrage
'We will build a new Taj'
Carnage, blood collage,
Can we bring back the entourage?
Reshma Ramesh
