I have lived in Bengal for more than 20 years, and nearly 10 years in Calcutta. If being a Calcutta is synonymous with being a 'COMMMIEEEEEEEEE...' , I am one! Get awaya from your gutter politics and get a 'bhadralok' top view perspective. ...............
An Aerial View ........................
Eyes span the contours, all edges of the city, Its variegated growth And life amidst uproar.
Spans the narrow lanes where poverty breeds Tears, dust, grime and lust. Endless agonies wrapped in tattered cloth, Minds crazed by unbearable memories.
Span the main streets where ambition breeds Isolation, riches, fear, and smeared hopes. And thoughts wrapped in contrived presence, Of far away histories.
