KASHI MOKSHA

Dogs. Children. Elderly. Infirmed.  Women. Children. Men of low status. Cats. Cows. Goats. The birds.

Beauty in the lines.

Gilded silks. Wooden flutes. Kashmir fabrics. Brass Adornments. Stirring Music. Raw stone streets.

Labyrinths of fragrant Pan.

Microplastics. Thick chai. Single use terracotta vessels. Malaiyo. Open sewers. Consumer culture. Lifeless rivers.

Tourist economy. Soul Equity. Extraction. Exploitation. Shredded cash. Lack of checks. Lack of balance. Abundance of matter. Heavy to collapse.

A folding in

Closing world

Unfolding yet to open pasture

Through death and fire on the water.

A Repatriation of stolen jewels
