After you hung up the call,

whatsapp asks me to rate our call.


Genuinely, I wanted to give a single star

For the poor communication we had;

Power Cuts

 

It’s eleven p.m as we pause, our video-call for a rest,

for about an hour – a ritual these days you say;

for the people of your village to walk on their terrace,

counting the stars and acknowledge the changing climate........
