 My poem 'Abandoned' appears in the online journal, Ultramarine Literary Review, 22 July 2026

 

Abandoned

by R.K. Singh

With divided heart mind and colours

deluded and dumb millions still blind

to politicians peeling their flesh

layer by layer like onion

 

take pride in the knife that cuts them to core

get cooked in debris of myths and history

for kites and vultures of caste and sect

 

now more vulgar breeds of tyrant flourish

under the same sky they are gashed peels

the abandoned bodies the rotten souls

• Political poetry
• Hell
