Diversity

speaking of diversity

i am an indian boy

with chinky eyes

who likes french fries

and raj kumar hirani films

psychologically or colonially

spoiled english major who thinks

shakespeare is way cooler than tagore

i don't speak hindi

bengali or marathi

but who cares if my time is right on sadhi

speaking of hindi

and shadhi

my first ever hindi phrase comes from a branded undergarments tagline that says

'suno toh apne dil ki'

and how's this for irony

i still have commitment issue

and don't get along with my heart
