On white canvas
myriad hues get dispersed
With colorimetry
canvas becomes fertile,
Masses rush to pour
accolades for the creation…
White saree
accidentally gets stained
with single drop of color,
As the border flutters a little
there is a huge outcry,
Masses reach again
to oppress and suffocate her…
Kalamkar —the writer,
dreams and wishes,
If he could erect the frame
with white saree
and clothe her with
the canvas!
